| CVE-2016-9774 | 3 Apache, Canonical, Debian | 3 Tomcat, Ubuntu Linux, Debian Linux | 2025-04-20 | N/A |
| The postinst script in the tomcat6 package before 6.0.45+dfsg-1~deb7u4 on Debian wheezy, before 6.0.35-1ubuntu3.9 on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS and on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS; the tomcat7 package before 7.0.28-4+deb7u8 on Debian wheezy, before 7.0.56-3+deb8u6 on Debian jessie, before 7.0.52-1ubuntu0.8 on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS, and on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, 16.04 LTS, and 16.10; and the tomcat8 package before 8.0.14-1+deb8u5 on Debian jessie, before 8.0.32-1ubuntu1.3 on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, before 8.0.37-1ubuntu0.1 on Ubuntu 16.10, and before 8.0.38-2ubuntu1 on Ubuntu 17.04 might allow local users with access to the tomcat account to obtain sensitive information or gain root privileges via a symlink attack on the Catalina localhost directory. | ||||
| CVE-2017-12172 | 2 Postgresql, Redhat | 4 Postgresql, Enterprise Linux, Rhel Software Collections and 1 more | 2025-04-20 | N/A |
| PostgreSQL 10.x before 10.1, 9.6.x before 9.6.6, 9.5.x before 9.5.10, 9.4.x before 9.4.15, 9.3.x before 9.3.20, and 9.2.x before 9.2.24 runs under a non-root operating system account, and database superusers have effective ability to run arbitrary code under that system account. PostgreSQL provides a script for starting the database server during system boot. Packages of PostgreSQL for many operating systems provide their own, packager-authored startup implementations. Several implementations use a log file name that the database superuser can replace with a symbolic link. As root, they open(), chmod() and/or chown() this log file name. This often suffices for the database superuser to escalate to root privileges when root starts the server. | ||||
| CVE-2015-7723 | 1 Amd | 1 Fglrx-driver | 2025-04-20 | N/A |
| AMD fglrx-driver before 15.7 allows local users to gain privileges via a symlink attack. | ||||
| CVE-2017-9525 | 3 Canonical, Cron Project, Debian | 3 Ubuntu Linux, Cron, Debian Linux | 2025-04-20 | 6.7 Medium |
| In the cron package through 3.0pl1-128 on Debian, and through 3.0pl1-128ubuntu2 on Ubuntu, the postinst maintainer script allows for group-crontab-to-root privilege escalation via symlink attacks against unsafe usage of the chown and chmod programs. | ||||
| CVE-2015-6240 | 1 Redhat | 1 Ansible | 2025-04-20 | N/A |
| The chroot, jail, and zone connection plugins in ansible before 1.9.2 allow local users to escape a restricted environment via a symlink attack. | ||||
| CVE-2017-3265 | 4 Debian, Mariadb, Oracle and 1 more | 11 Debian Linux, Mariadb, Mysql and 8 more | 2025-04-20 | 5.6 Medium |
| Vulnerability in the MySQL Server component of Oracle MySQL (subcomponent: Server: Packaging). Supported versions that are affected are 5.5.53 and earlier, 5.6.34 and earlier and 5.7.16 and earlier. Difficult to exploit vulnerability allows high privileged attacker with logon to the infrastructure where MySQL Server executes to compromise MySQL Server. Successful attacks require human interaction from a person other than the attacker. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized access to critical data or complete access to all MySQL Server accessible data and unauthorized ability to cause a hang or frequently repeatable crash (complete DOS) of MySQL Server. CVSS v3.0 Base Score 5.6 (Confidentiality and Availability impacts). | ||||
| CVE-2017-8108 | 1 Cisofy | 1 Lynis | 2025-04-20 | N/A |

| CVE-2017-1301 | 1 Ibm | 1 Tivoli Storage Manager | 2025-04-20 | N/A |
| IBM Spectrum Protect 7.1 and 8.1 could allow a local attacker to launch a symlink attack. IBM Spectrum Protect Backup-archive Client creates temporary files insecurely. A local attacker could exploit this vulnerability by creating a symbolic link from a temporary file to various files on the system, which could allow the attacker to overwrite arbitrary files on the system with elevated privileges. IBM X-Force ID: 125163. | ||||
