sos: privilege escalation
| Package(s): | sos |
CVE #(s): | CVE-2012-2664
|
| Created: | June 20, 2012 |
Updated: | July 11, 2012 |
| Description: |
From the Red Hat advisory:
The sosreport utility collected the Kickstart configuration file
("/root/anaconda-ks.cfg"), but did not remove the root user's password from
it before adding the file to the resulting archive of debugging
information. An attacker able to access the archive could possibly use this
flaw to obtain the root user's password. "/root/anaconda-ks.cfg" usually
only contains a hash of the password, not the plain text password. |
