PostgreSQL: Insecure temporary file use in make_oidjoins_check
| Package(s): | PostgreSQL |
CVE #(s): | CAN-2004-0977
|
| Created: | October 18, 2004 |
Updated: | December 20, 2004 |
| Description: |
The make_oidjoins_check script insecurely creates temporary files in
world-writeable directories with predictable names. A local attacker could
create symbolic links in the temporary files directory, pointing to a valid
file somewhere on the filesystem. When make_oidjoins_check is called, this
would result in file overwrite with the rights of the user running the
utility, which could be the root user. |
