Title
Insights-client: unsafe handling of temporary files and directories
Summary
A vulnerability was found in insights-client. This security issue occurs because of insecure file operations or unsafe handling of temporary files and directories that lead to local privilege escalation. Before the insights-client has been registered on the system by root, an unprivileged local user or attacker could create the /var/tmp/insights-client directory (owning the directory with read, write, and execute permissions) on the system. After the insights-client is registered by root, an attacker could then control the directory content that insights are using by putting malicious scripts into it and executing arbitrary code as root (trivially bypassing SELinux protections because insights processes are allowed to disable SELinux system-wide).

CVE-2023-3181 (GCVE-0-2023-3181)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2024-01-25 15:22 – Updated: 2025-06-03 18:21
VLAI
Title
Insecure Permissions in Splashtop Software Updater
Summary
The C:\Program Files (x86)\Splashtop\Splashtop Software Updater\uninst.exe process creates a folder at C:\Windows\Temp~nsu.tmp and copies itself to it as Au_.exe. The C:\Windows\Temp~nsu.tmp\Au_.exe file is automatically launched as SYSTEM when the system reboots or when a standard user runs an MSI repair using Splashtop Streamer’s Windows Installer. Since the C:\Windows\Temp~nsu.tmp folder inherits permissions from C:\Windows\Temp and Au_.exe is susceptible to DLL hijacking, standard users can write a malicious DLL to it and elevate their privileges.

CVE-2022-24823 (GCVE-0-2022-24823)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2022-05-06 12:05 – Updated: 2025-04-22 18:01

Title
Local Information Disclosure Vulnerability in io.netty:netty-codec-http
Summary
Netty is an open-source, asynchronous event-driven network application framework. The package `io.netty:netty-codec-http` prior to version 4.1.77.Final contains an insufficient fix for CVE-2021-21290. When Netty's multipart decoders are used local information disclosure can occur via the local system temporary directory if temporary storing uploads on the disk is enabled. This only impacts applications running on Java version 6 and lower. Additionally, this vulnerability impacts code running on Unix-like systems, and very old versions of Mac OSX and Windows as they all share the system temporary directory between all users. Version 4.1.77.Final contains a patch for this vulnerability. As a workaround, specify one's own `java.io.tmpdir` when starting the JVM or use DefaultHttpDataFactory.setBaseDir(...) to set the directory to something that is only readable by the current user.

Mitigation
Requirements

Many contemporary languages have functions which properly handle this condition. Older C temp file functions are especially susceptible.

Mitigation
Implementation

Try to store sensitive tempfiles in a directory which is not world readable -- i.e., per-user directories.

Mitigation
Implementation

Avoid using vulnerable temp file functions.
