Vulnerabilities > Improper Link Resolution Before File Access ('Link Following')
| DATE | CVE | VULNERABILITY TITLE | RISK |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2018-03-13 | CVE-2017-1002101 | Link Following vulnerability in Kubernetes In Kubernetes versions 1.3.x, 1.4.x, 1.5.x, 1.6.x and prior to versions 1.7.14, 1.8.9 and 1.9.4 containers using subpath volume mounts with any volume type (including non-privileged pods, subject to file permissions) can access files/directories outside of the volume, including the host's filesystem. | 9.6 |
| 2018-03-13 | CVE-2018-1000073 | Link Following vulnerability in Rubygems RubyGems version Ruby 2.2 series: 2.2.9 and earlier, Ruby 2.3 series: 2.3.6 and earlier, Ruby 2.4 series: 2.4.3 and earlier, Ruby 2.5 series: 2.5.0 and earlier, prior to trunk revision 62422 contains a Directory Traversal vulnerability in install_location function of package.rb that can result in path traversal when writing to a symlinked basedir outside of the root. | 7.5 |
| 2018-03-12 | CVE-2017-2619 | Link Following vulnerability in multiple products Samba before versions 4.6.1, 4.5.7 and 4.4.11 are vulnerable to a malicious client using a symlink race to allow access to areas of the server file system not exported under the share definition. | 7.5 |
| 2018-03-02 | CVE-2015-0796 | Link Following vulnerability in Opensuse Open Buildservice In open buildservice 2.6 before 2.6.3, 2.5 before 2.5.7 and 2.4 before 2.4.8 the source service patch application could generate non-standard files like symlinks or device nodes, which could allow buildservice users to break of confinement or cause denial of service attacks on the source service. | 7.8 |
| 2018-03-01 | CVE-2017-5188 | Link Following vulnerability in Opensuse Open Build Service The bs_worker code in open build service before 20170320 followed relative symlinks, allowing reading of files outside of the package source directory during build, allowing leakage of private information. | 7.5 |
| 2018-02-14 | CVE-2017-18188 | Link Following vulnerability in Openr Opentmpfiles OpenRC opentmpfiles through 0.1.3, when the fs.protected_hardlinks sysctl is turned off, allows local users to obtain ownership of arbitrary files by creating a hard link inside a directory on which "chown -R" will be run. | 5.5 |
| 2018-02-13 | CVE-2018-6954 | Link Following vulnerability in multiple products systemd-tmpfiles in systemd through 237 mishandles symlinks present in non-terminal path components, which allows local users to obtain ownership of arbitrary files via vectors involving creation of a directory and a file under that directory, and later replacing that directory with a symlink. | 7.8 |
| 2018-02-09 | CVE-2014-3219 | Link Following vulnerability in multiple products fish before 2.1.1 allows local users to write to arbitrary files via a symlink attack on (1) /tmp/fishd.log.%s, (2) /tmp/.pac-cache.$USER, (3) /tmp/.yum-cache.$USER, or (4) /tmp/.rpm-cache.$USER. | 7.8 |
| 2018-01-29 | CVE-2017-18078 | Link Following vulnerability in multiple products systemd-tmpfiles in systemd before 237 attempts to support ownership/permission changes on hardlinked files even if the fs.protected_hardlinks sysctl is turned off, which allows local users to bypass intended access restrictions via vectors involving a hard link to a file for which the user lacks write access, as demonstrated by changing the ownership of the /etc/passwd file. | 7.8 |
| 2018-01-25 | CVE-2018-6198 | Link Following vulnerability in multiple products w3m through 0.5.3 does not properly handle temporary files when the ~/.w3m directory is unwritable, which allows a local attacker to craft a symlink attack to overwrite arbitrary files. | 4.7 |
