<p>
|
|
A vulnerability leading to unauthorized file access has been
|
|
found. A pre-existing symlink from /tmp/sudoers and /tmp/super.tab to a
|
|
textfile will cause Smb4k to write the contents of these files to the
|
|
target of the symlink, as Smb4k does not check for the existence of
|
|
these files before writing to them.
|
|

<impact type="high">
|
|
<p>
|
|
An attacker could acquire local privilege escalation by adding
|
|
username(s) to the list of sudoers.

</impact>
|
|
<workaround>
|
|
<p>
|
|
There is no known workaround at this time.

|
</p>
|
|
</workaround>
|
|
<resolution>
|
|
<p>
|
|
All smb4k users should upgrade to the latest version:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<code>
|
|
# emerge --sync
|
|
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=net-misc/smb4k-0.6.4"</code>
