CVSS v3.1 |
| In Maxima through 5.47.0 before 51704c, the plotting facilities make use of predictable names under /tmp. Thus, the contents may be controlled by a local attacker who can create files in advance with these names. This affects, for example, plot2d. |
| 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. |
| 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. |
| 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. |
| JumpCloud Remote Assist for Windows versions prior to 0.317.0 include an uninstaller that is invoked by the JumpCloud Windows Agent as NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM during agent uninstall or update operations. The Remote Assist uninstaller performs privileged create, write, execute, and delete actions on predictable files inside a user-writable %TEMP% subdirectory without validating that the directory is trusted or resetting its ACLs when it already exists. A local, low-privileged attacker can pre-create the directory with weak permissions and leverage mount-point or symbolic-link redirection to (a) coerce arbitrary file writes to protected locations, leading to denial of service (e.g., by overwriting sensitive system files), or (b) win a race to redirect DeleteFileW() to attacker-chosen targets, enabling arbitrary file or folder deletion and local privilege escalation to SYSTEM. This issue is fixed in JumpCloud Remote Assist 0.317.0 and affects Windows systems where Remote Assist is installed and managed through the Agent lifecycle. |
| 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. |
| bash-git-prompt 2.6.1 through 2.7.1 insecurely uses the /tmp/git-index-private$$ file, which has a predictable name. |
| 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;. |
| 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. |
| readline.sh in socat before1.8.0.2 relies on the /tmp/$USER/stderr2 file. |
| In mlflow version 2.20.3, the temporary directory used for creating Python virtual environments is assigned insecure world-writable permissions (0o777). This vulnerability allows an attacker with write access to the `/tmp` directory to exploit a race condition and overwrite `.py` files in the virtual environment, leading to arbitrary code execution. The issue is resolved in version 3.4.0. |
| A vulnerability was found in insights-client. This security issue occurs because of insecure file operations or unsafe handling of temporary files and directories that lead to local privilege escalation. Before the insights-client has been registered on the system by root, an unprivileged local user or attacker could create the /var/tmp/insights-client directory (owning the directory with read, write, and execute permissions) on the system. After the insights-client is registered by root, an attacker could then control the directory content that insights are using by putting malicious scripts into it and executing arbitrary code as root (trivially bypassing SELinux protections because insights processes are allowed to disable SELinux system-wide). |
| A privacy issue was addressed with improved handling of temporary files. This issue is fixed in iOS 17.4 and iPadOS 17.4, macOS Sonoma 14.4, watchOS 10.4. An app may be able to access user-sensitive data. |
| A privacy issue was addressed with improved handling of temporary files. This issue is fixed in macOS Sequoia 15.7.5, macOS Sonoma 14.8.4, macOS Tahoe 26.3. An app may be able to access sensitive user data. |
| Lakeside Software’s SysTrack LsiAgent Installer version 10.7.8 for Windows contains a local privilege escalation vulnerability which allows attackers SYSTEM level access. |
| OpenClaw before 2026.2.17 creates session transcript JSONL files with overly broad default permissions, allowing local users to read transcript contents. Attackers with local access can read transcript files to extract sensitive information including secrets from tool output. |
| Requests is a HTTP library. Prior to version 2.33.0, the `requests.utils.extract_zipped_paths()` utility function uses a predictable filename when extracting files from zip archives into the system temporary directory. If the target file already exists, it is reused without validation. A local attacker with write access to the temp directory could pre-create a malicious file that would be loaded in place of the legitimate one. Standard usage of the Requests library is not affected by this vulnerability. Only applications that call `extract_zipped_paths()` directly are impacted. Starting in version 2.33.0, the library extracts files to a non-deterministic location. If developers are unable to upgrade, they can set `TMPDIR` in their environment to a directory with restricted write access. |
| Dell SupportAssist OS Recovery, versions prior to 5.5.14.0, contain a Creation of Temporary File With Insecure Permissions vulnerability. A local authenticated attacker could potentially exploit this vulnerability, leading to Elevation of Privileges. |
| Dell Alienware Command Center 6.x (AWCC), versions prior to 6.10.15.0, contains an Insecure Temporary File vulnerability. A low privileged attacker with local access could potentially exploit this vulnerability, leading to Privilege Escalation. |
