AlienVault OTX Vulnerabilities

AlienVault OTX Malware

systemd-tmpfiles in systemd through 237 mishandles symlinks present in non-terminal path components, which allows local users to obtain ownership of arbitrary files via vectors involving creation of a directory and a file under that directory, and later replacing that directory with a symlink. This occurs even if the fs.protected_symlinks sysctl is turned on.

CVE-2018-6954 is a high-severity local privilege escalation vulnerability affecting systemd-tmpfiles in systemd versions up to 237. The vulnerability arises from improper handling of symbolic links (symlinks) in non-terminal path components during tmpfiles processing. Specifically, systemd-tmpfiles mishandles symlinks when a directory and a file are created under that directory, and subsequently the directory is replaced with a symlink. This flaw allows a local user with limited privileges to gain ownership of arbitrary files by exploiting the race condition between directory creation and symlink replacement. Notably, this vulnerability bypasses protections provided by the Linux kernel's fs.protected_symlinks sysctl setting, which is designed to prevent symlink attacks. The CVSS v3.1 base score is 7.8, reflecting high impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability, with low attack complexity and requiring low privileges but no user interaction. The vulnerability is classified under CWE-59 (Improper Link Resolution Before File Access). Although no known public exploits have been reported, the nature of the flaw makes it a significant risk for local privilege escalation on affected Linux systems using systemd-tmpfiles, potentially allowing attackers to manipulate system files or escalate privileges to root.
