The init script in the Gentoo app-admin/logstash-bin package before 5.5.3 and 5.6.x before 5.6.1 has "chown -R" calls for user-writable directory trees, which allows local users to gain privileges by leveraging access to a $LS_USER account for creation of a hard link.
CVE-2017-15945 3 Gentoo, Mariadb, Mysql 3 Linux, Mariadb, Mysql 2025-04-20 7.2 HIGH 7.8 HIGH
The installation scripts in the Gentoo dev-db/mysql, dev-db/mariadb, dev-db/percona-server, dev-db/mysql-cluster, and dev-db/mariadb-galera packages before 2017-09-29 have chown calls for user-writable directory trees, which allows local users to gain privileges by leveraging access to the mysql account for creation of a link.
CVE-2014-4909 4 Canonical, Fedoraproject, Gentoo and 1 more 4 Ubuntu Linux, Fedora, Linux and 1 more 2025-04-12 6.8 MEDIUM N/A
Integer overflow in the tr_bitfieldEnsureNthBitAlloced function in bitfield.c in Transmission before 2.84 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted peer message, which triggers an out-of-bounds write.
CVE-2013-0348 5 Acme, Fedoraproject, Gentoo and 2 more 5 Thttpd, Fedora, Linux and 2 more 2025-04-11 2.1 LOW N/A
thttpd.c in sthttpd before 2.26.4-r2 and thttpd 2.25b use world-readable permissions for /var/log/thttpd.log, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information by reading the file.
CVE-2010-1159 2 Aircrack-ng, Gentoo 2 Aircrack-ng, Linux 2025-04-11 6.8 MEDIUM N/A
Multiple heap-based buffer overflows in Aircrack-ng before 1.1 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and execute arbitrary code via a (1) large length value in an EAPOL packet or (2) long EAPOL packet.
CVE-2013-2032 3 Fedoraproject, Gentoo, Mediawiki 3 Fedora, Linux, Mediawiki 2025-04-11 5.0 MEDIUM N/A
MediaWiki before 1.19.6 and 1.20.x before 1.20.5 does not allow extensions to prevent password changes without using both Special:PasswordReset and Special:ChangePassword, which allows remote attackers to bypass the intended restrictions of an extension that only implements one of these blocks.
CVE-2013-2031 2 Gentoo, Mediawiki 2 Linux, Mediawiki 2025-04-11 4.3 MEDIUM N/A
MediaWiki before 1.19.6 and 1.20.x before 1.20.5 allows remote attackers to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks, as demonstrated by a CDATA section containing valid UTF-7 encoded sequences in a SVG file, which is then incorrectly interpreted as UTF-8 by Chrome and Firefox.
CVE-2011-1549 1 Gentoo 2 Linux, Logrotate 2025-04-11 6.3 MEDIUM N/A
The default configuration of logrotate on Gentoo Linux uses root privileges to process files in directories that permit non-root write access, which allows local users to conduct symlink and hard link attacks by leveraging logrotate's lack of support for untrusted directories, as demonstrated by directories under /var/log/ for packages.
CVE-2007-2173 2 Double Precision Incorporated, Gentoo 2 Courier-imap, Linux 2025-04-09 10.0 HIGH N/A
Eval injection vulnerability in (1) courier-imapd.indirect and (2) courier-pop3d.indirect in Courier-IMAP before 4.0.6-r2, and 4.1.x before 4.1.2-r1, on Gentoo Linux allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via the XMAILDIR variable, related to the LOGINRUN variable.
CVE-2008-1291 3 Gentoo, Redhat, Viewvc 3 Linux, Fedora, Viewvc 2025-04-09 4.3 MEDIUM N/A
ViewVC before 1.0.5 stores sensitive information under the web root with insufficient access control, which allows remote attackers to read files and list folders under the hidden CVSROOT folder.
CVE-2008-1078 2 Gentoo, Rpath 2 Linux, Rpath Linux 2025-04-09 7.2 HIGH N/A
expn in the am-utils and net-fs packages for Gentoo, rPath Linux, and other distributions, allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on the expn[PID] temporary file. NOTE: this is the same issue as CVE-2003-0308.1.
CVE-2007-0476 1 Gentoo 1 Linux 2025-04-09 4.6 MEDIUM N/A
The gencert.sh script, when installing OpenLDAP before 2.1.30-r10, 2.2.x before 2.2.28-r7, and 2.3.x before 2.3.30-r2 as an ebuild in Gentoo Linux, does not create temporary directories in /tmp securely during emerge, which allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack.
CVE-2007-4137 6 Conectiva, Gentoo, Mandrakesoft and 3 more 8 Linux, Linux, Mandrake Linux and 5 more 2025-04-09 7.5 HIGH N/A
Off-by-one error in the QUtf8Decoder::toUnicode function in Trolltech Qt 3 allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a crafted Unicode string that triggers a heap-based buffer overflow. NOTE: Qt 4 has the same error in the QUtf8Codec::convertToUnicode function, but it is not exploitable.
CVE-2007-1049 2 Gentoo, Wordpress 2 Linux, Wordpress 2025-04-09 4.3 MEDIUM N/A
Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the wp_explain_nonce function in the nonce AYS functionality (wp-includes/functions.php) for WordPress 2.0 before 2.0.9 and 2.1 before 2.1.1 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the file parameter to wp-admin/templates.php, and possibly other vectors involving the action variable.
CVE-2008-1292 3 Gentoo, Redhat, Viewvc 3 Linux, Fedora, Viewvc 2025-04-09 4.3 MEDIUM N/A
ViewVC before 1.0.5 provides revision metadata without properly checking whether access was intended, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information by reading (1) forbidden pathnames in the revision view, (2) log history that can only be reached by traversing a forbidden object, or (3) forbidden diff view path parameters.
CVE-2007-1856 2 Gentoo, Paul Vixie 2 Linux, Vixie Cron 2025-04-09 2.1 LOW N/A
Vixie Cron before 4.1-r10 on Gentoo Linux is installed with insecure permissions, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (cron failure) by creating hard links, which results in a failed st_nlink check in database.c.
CVE-2007-1500 1 Gentoo 1 Linux 2025-04-09 4.3 MEDIUM N/A
The Linux Security Auditing Tool (LSAT) allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on temporary files, as demonstrated using /tmp/lsat1.lsat.
CVE-2008-1290 3 Gentoo, Redhat, Viewvc 3 Linux, Fedora, Viewvc 2025-04-09 4.3 MEDIUM N/A
ViewVC before 1.0.5 includes "all-forbidden" files within search results that list CVS or Subversion (SVN) commits, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information.
CVE-2008-6756 2 Gentoo, Zoneminder 2 Linux, Zoneminder 2025-04-09 2.1 LOW N/A
ZoneMinder 1.23.3 on Gentoo Linux uses 0644 permissions for /etc/zm.conf, which allows local users to obtain the database username and password by reading this file.
CVE-2007-3532 2 Gentoo, Nvidia 2 Linux, Video Driver 2025-04-09 7.2 HIGH N/A
NVIDIA drivers (nvidia-drivers) before 1.0.7185, 1.0.9639, and 100.14.11, as used in Gentoo Linux and possibly other distributions, creates /dev/nvidia* device files with insecure permissions, which allows local users to modify video card settings, cause a denial of service (crash or physical video card damage), and obtain sensitive information.
