CVE-2012-10022

Kloxo versions 6.1.12 and earlier contain two setuid root binaries—lxsuexec and lxrestart—that allow local privilege escalation from uid 48. The lxsuexec binary performs a uid check and permits execution of arbitrary commands as root if the invoking user matches uid 48. This flaw enables attackers with Apache-level access to escalate privileges to root without authentication.

Summary
  • (es) Las versiones 6.1.12 y anteriores de Kloxo contienen dos binarios setuid root (lxsuexec y lxrestart) que permiten la escalada de privilegios locales desde el uid 48. El binario lxsuexec realiza una comprobación del uid y permite la ejecución de comandos arbitrarios como root si el usuario que invoca coincide con el uid 48. Esta falla permite a los atacantes con acceso a nivel Apache escalar privilegios a root sin autenticación.
