CVE-2011-1550 Information

Description

The default configuration of logrotate on SUSE openSUSE Factory uses root privileges to process files in directories that permit non-root write access which allows local users to conduct symlink and hard link attacks by leveraging logrotate’s lack of support for untrusted directories as demonstrated by directories for the (1) cobbler (2) inn (3) safte-monitor and (4) uucp packages.
