| AMD fglrx-driver before 15.9 allows local users to gain privileges via a symlink attack. NOTE: This vulnerability exists due to an incomplete fix for CVE-2015-7723. | |||||
| CVE-2015-6240 | 1 Redhat | 1 Ansible | 2025-04-20 | 7.2 HIGH | 7.8 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-2015-3211 | 1 Php-fpm | 1 Php-fpm | 2025-04-20 | 2.1 LOW | 5.5 MEDIUM |

| perltidy through 20160302, as used by perlcritic, check-all-the-things, and other software, relies on the current working directory for certain output files and does not have a symlink-attack protection mechanism, which allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files by creating a symlink, as demonstrated by creating a perltidy.ERR symlink that the victim cannot delete. | |||||
| CVE-2017-2390 | 1 Apple | 4 Iphone Os, Mac Os X, Tvos and 1 more | 2025-04-20 | 2.1 LOW | 5.5 MEDIUM |

| CVE-2017-2916 | 1 Meetcircle | 2 Circle With Disney, Circle With Disney Firmware | 2025-04-20 | 9.0 HIGH | 8.8 HIGH |
| An exploitable vulnerability exists in the /api/CONFIG/restore functionality of Circle with Disney running firmware 2.0.1. Specially crafted network packets can cause an arbitrary file to be overwritten. An attacker can send an HTTP request to trigger this vulnerability. | |||||
| CVE-2016-7619 | 1 Apple | 3 Iphone Os, Mac Os X, Watchos | 2025-04-20 | 2.1 LOW | 5.5 MEDIUM |

| CVE-2016-1255 | 2 Canonical, Debian | 3 Ubuntu Linux, Debian Linux, Postgresql-common | 2025-04-20 | 7.2 HIGH | 7.8 HIGH |
| The pg_ctlcluster script in postgresql-common package in Debian wheezy before 134wheezy5, in Debian jessie before 165+deb8u2, in Debian unstable before 178, in Ubuntu 12.04 LTS before 129ubuntu1.2, in Ubuntu 14.04 LTS before 154ubuntu1.1, in Ubuntu 16.04 LTS before 173ubuntu0.1, in Ubuntu 17.04 before 179ubuntu0.1, and in Ubuntu 17.10 before 184ubuntu1.1 allows local users to gain root privileges via a symlink attack on a logfile in /var/log/postgresql. | |||||
| 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-2011-2684 | 1 Rkkda | 1 Foo2zjs | 2025-04-20 | 2.1 LOW | 5.5 MEDIUM |

| 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-2015-7723 | 1 Amd | 1 Fglrx-driver | 2025-04-20 | 7.2 HIGH | 7.8 HIGH |

| 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. | |||||
