[GLSA-200508-19] lm_sensors: Insecure temporary file creation |
||
lm_sensors: Insecure temporary file creation Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-200508-19 (lm_sensors: Insecure temporary file creation) Javier Fernandez-Sanguino Pena has discovered that lm_sensors insecurely creates temporary files with predictable filenames when saving configurations. Impact A local attacker could create symbolic links in the temporary file directory, pointing to a valid file somewhere on the filesystem. When the pwmconfig script of lm_sensors is executed, this would result in the file being overwritten with the rights of the user running the script, which typically is the root user. Workaround There is no known workaround at this time.
