<p>
|
|
The fixproc application of Net-SNMP creates temporary files with
|
|
predictable filenames.

<impact type="normal">
|
|
<p>
|
|
A malicious local attacker could exploit a race condition to change the
|
|
content of the temporary files before they are executed by fixproc,
|
|
possibly leading to the execution of arbitrary code. A local attacker
|
|
could also create symbolic links in the temporary files directory,
|
|
pointing to a valid file somewhere on the filesystem. When fixproc is
|
|
executed, this would result in the file being overwritten.
|

<workaround>

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