Perl SuidPerl Multiple Local Vulnerabilities
SuidPerl is reported prone to multiple vulnerabilities. The following individual issues are reported: - the 'PERLIO_DEBUG' SuidPerl environment variable may be employed to corrupt arbitrary files. A local unprivileged attacker may exploit this vulnerability to corrupt arbitrary files with superuser privileges. This may ultimately lead to a denial of service for legitimate users or to privilege escalation. - SuidPerl is prone to a local buffer-overflow vulnerability as well. A local attacker may exploit this buffer-overflow vulnerability to gain superuser privileges. This issue is also exploited through the 'PERLIO_DEBUG' variable. |
