| IBM Spectrum Protect 7.1 and 8.1 could allow a local attacker to launch a symlink attack. IBM Spectrum Protect Backup-archive Client creates temporary files insecurely. A local attacker could exploit this vulnerability by creating a symbolic link from a temporary file to various files on the system, which could allow the attacker to overwrite arbitrary files on the system with elevated privileges. IBM X-Force ID: 125163. | |||||
| CVE-2014-4978 | 2 Fedoraproject, Rawstudio | 2 Fedora, Rawstudio | 2025-04-20 | 3.6 LOW | 5.5 MEDIUM |
| The rs_filter_graph function in librawstudio/rs-filter.c in rawstudio might allow local users to truncate arbitrary files via a symlink attack on (1) /tmp/rs-filter-graph.png or (2) /tmp/rs-filter-graph. | |||||
| CVE-2017-12172 | 1 Postgresql | 1 Postgresql | 2025-04-20 | 7.2 HIGH | 6.7 MEDIUM |
| PostgreSQL 10.x before 10.1, 9.6.x before 9.6.6, 9.5.x before 9.5.10, 9.4.x before 9.4.15, 9.3.x before 9.3.20, and 9.2.x before 9.2.24 runs under a non-root operating system account, and database superusers have effective ability to run arbitrary code under that system account. PostgreSQL provides a script for starting the database server during system boot. Packages of PostgreSQL for many operating systems provide their own, packager-authored startup implementations. Several implementations use a log file name that the database superuser can replace with a symbolic link. As root, they open(), chmod() and/or chown() this log file name. This often suffices for the database superuser to escalate to root privileges when root starts the server. | |||||
| CVE-2015-5701 | 1 Tug | 1 Texlive | 2025-04-20 | 5.6 MEDIUM | 6.1 MEDIUM |
| mktexlsr revision 36855, and before revision 36626 as packaged in texlive allows local users to write to arbitrary files via a symlink attack. NOTE: this vulnerability exists due to the reversion of a fix of CVE-2015-5700. | |||||
| CVE-2017-8108 | 1 Cisofy | 1 Lynis | 2025-04-20 | 4.6 MEDIUM | 7.8 HIGH |

| CVE-2017-6981 | 1 Apple | 2 Iphone Os, Mac Os X | 2025-04-20 | 9.3 HIGH | 7.8 HIGH |
| An issue was discovered in certain Apple products. iOS before 10.3.2 is affected. macOS before 10.12.5 is affected. The issue involves the "iBooks" component. It allows attackers to execute arbitrary code in a privileged context via a crafted app that uses symlinks. | |||||
| CVE-2017-1000115 | 3 Debian, Mercurial, Redhat | 8 Debian Linux, Mercurial, Enterprise Linux Desktop and 5 more | 2025-04-20 | 5.0 MEDIUM | 7.5 HIGH |

| CVE-2017-7501 | 1 Rpm | 1 Rpm | 2025-04-20 | 4.6 MEDIUM | 7.8 HIGH |
| It was found that versions of rpm before 4.13.0.2 use temporary files with predictable names when installing an RPM. An attacker with ability to write in a directory where files will be installed could create symbolic links to an arbitrary location and modify content, and possibly permissions to arbitrary files, which could be used for denial of service or possibly privilege escalation. | |||||
| CVE-2017-7418 | 1 Proftpd | 1 Proftpd | 2025-04-20 | 2.1 LOW | 5.5 MEDIUM |
| ProFTPD before 1.3.5e and 1.3.6 before 1.3.6rc5 controls whether the home directory of a user could contain a symbolic link through the AllowChrootSymlinks configuration option, but checks only the last path component when enforcing AllowChrootSymlinks. Attackers with local access could bypass the AllowChrootSymlinks control by replacing a path component (other than the last one) with a symbolic link. The threat model includes an attacker who is not granted full filesystem access by a hosting provider, but can reconfigure the home directory of an FTP user. | |||||
