| Use of insecure directory in Spring Data Geode snapshot import extracts archives into predictable, permissive directories under the system temp location. On shared hosts, a local user with basic privileges can access another user’s extracted snapshot contents, leading to unintended exposure of cache data. |
| An Insecure Temporary File vulnerability in openSUSE sdbootutil allows local users to pre-create a directory to achieve various effects like:
* gain access to possible private information found in /var/lib/pcrlock.d
* manipulate the data backed up in /tmp/pcrlock.d.bak, therefore violating the integrity of the data should it be restored.
* overwrite protected system files with data from /var/lib/pcrlock.d by placing symlinks to existing files in the directory tree in /tmp/pcrlock.d.bak.
This issue affects sdbootutil: from ? before 5880246d3a02642dc68f5c8cb474bf63cdb56bca. |
| Race condition in shtool 2.0.1 and earlier allows local users to create or modify arbitrary files via a symlink attack on the .shtool.$$ temporary file, a different vulnerability than CVE-2005-1759. |
| znew in the gzip package allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on temporary files. |
| An issue was addressed with improved handling of temporary files. This issue is fixed in macOS Tahoe 26.3. An app may be able to access user-sensitive data. |
| A logging issue was addressed with improved data redaction. This issue is fixed in iOS 26.3 and iPadOS 26.3, macOS Tahoe 26.3, tvOS 26.3, watchOS 26.3. A user may be able to view sensitive user information. |
| A vulnerability was found in Point B Ltd Getscreen Agent 2.19.6 on Windows. It has been declared as critical. Affected by this vulnerability is an unknown functionality of the file getscreen.msi of the component Installation. The manipulation leads to creation of temporary file with insecure permissions. Local access is required to approach this attack. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used. The identifier VDB-273337 was assigned to this vulnerability. NOTE: The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but was not able to provide a technical response in time. |
| JumpCloud Agent before 1.178.0 Creates a Temporary File in a Directory with Insecure Permissions. This allows privilege escalation to SYSTEM via a repair action in the installer. |
| A vulnerability was detected in Mihomo Party up to 1.8.1 on macOS. Affected is the function enableSysProxy of the file src/main/sys/sysproxy.ts of the component Socket Handler. The manipulation results in creation of temporary file with insecure permissions. The attack requires a local approach. This attack is characterized by high complexity. The exploitability is told to be difficult. The exploit is now public and may be used. |
| The TLS engine in Kwik commit 745fd4e2 does not track the current state of the connection. This vulnerability can allow Client Hello messages to be overwritten at any time, including after a connection has been established. |
| The llama-index-core package, up to version 0.12.44, contains a vulnerability in the `get_cache_dir()` function where a predictable, hardcoded directory path `/tmp/llama_index` is used on Linux systems without proper security controls. This vulnerability allows attackers on multi-user systems to steal proprietary models, poison cached embeddings, or conduct symlink attacks. The issue affects all Linux deployments where multiple users share the same system. The vulnerability is classified under CWE-379, CWE-377, and CWE-367, indicating insecure temporary file creation and potential race conditions. |
| Products for macOS enables a user logged on to the system to perform a denial-of-service attack, which could be misused to disable the protection of the ESET security product and cause general system slow-down. |
| A potential elevated privilege issue has been reported with InstallShield built Standalone MSI setups having multiple InstallScript custom actions configured. All supported versions (InstallShield 2023 R2, InstallShield 2022 R2 and InstallShield 2021 R2) are affected by this issue. |
| Insecure creation of temporary files allows local users on systems with non-default configurations to cause denial of service or set the encryption key for a filesystem |
| bash-git-prompt 2.6.1 through 2.7.1 insecurely uses the /tmp/git-index-private$$ file, which has a predictable name. |
| Insecure permissions in Reolink Smart 2K+ Plug-in Wi-Fi Video Doorbell with Chime - firmware v3.0.0.4662_2503122283 allow attackers to arbitrarily change other users' passwords via manipulation of the userName value. |
| Kea configuration and API directives can be used to overwrite arbitrary files, subject to permissions granted to Kea. Many common configurations run Kea as root, leave the API entry points unsecured by default, and/or place the control sockets in insecure paths.
This issue affects Kea versions 2.4.0 through 2.4.1, 2.6.0 through 2.6.2, and 2.7.0 through 2.7.8. |
| make-initrd-ng is a tool for copying binaries and their dependencies. Local privilege escalation affecting all NixOS users. With systemd.shutdownRamfs.enable enabled (the default) a local user is able to create a program that will be executed by root during shutdown. Patches exist for NixOS 24.11 and 25.05 / unstable. As a workaround, set systemd.shutdownRamfs.enable = false;. |
| Gradle is a build automation tool, and its native-platform tool provides Java bindings for native APIs. On Unix-like systems, the system temporary directory can be created with open permissions that allow multiple users to create and delete files within it. This library initialization could be vulnerable to a local privilege escalation from an attacker quickly deleting and recreating files in the system temporary directory. Gradle builds that rely on versions of net.rubygrapefruit:native-platform prior to 0.22-milestone-28 could be vulnerable to a local privilege escalation from an attacker quickly deleting and recreating files in the system temporary directory.
In net.rubygrapefruit:native-platform prior to version 0.22-milestone-28, if the `Native.get(Class<>)` method was called, without calling `Native.init(File)` first, with a non-`null` argument used as working file path, then the library would initialize itself using the system temporary directory and NativeLibraryLocator.java lines 68 through 78. Version 0.22-milestone-28 has been released with changes that fix the problem. Initialization is now mandatory and no longer uses the system temporary directory, unless such a path is passed for initialization. The only workaround for affected versions is to make sure to do a proper initialization, using a location that is safe.
Gradle 8.12, only that exact version, had codepaths where the initialization of the underlying native integration library took a default path, relying on copying the binaries to the system temporary directory. Any execution of Gradle exposed this exploit. Users of Windows or modern versions of macOS are not vulnerable, nor are users of a Unix-like operating system with the "sticky" bit set or `noexec` on their system temporary directory vulnerable. This problem was fixed in Gradle 8.12.1. Gradle 8.13 release also upgrades to a version of the native library that no longer has that bug. Some workarounds are available. On Unix-like operating systems, ensure that the "sticky" bit is set. This only allows the original user (or root) to delete a file. Mounting `/tmp` as `noexec` will prevent Gradle 8.12 from starting. Those who are are unable to change the permissions of the system temporary directory can move the Java temporary directory by setting the System Property java.io.tmpdir. The new path needs to limit permissions to the build user only. |
| pytest through 9.0.2 on UNIX relies on directories with the /tmp/pytest-of-{user} name pattern, which allows local users to cause a denial of service or possibly gain privileges. |
