CVE-2011-1548
Published: Mar 30, 2011
Modified: Aug 6, 2024
PUBLISHED
Description
The default configuration of logrotate on Debian GNU/Linux uses root privileges to process files in directories that permit non-root write access, which allows local users to conduct symlink and hard link attacks by leveraging logrotate's lack of support for untrusted directories, as demonstrated by /var/log/postgresql/.
