CVE-2013-10052 Information

Description

ZPanel includes a helper binary named zsudo intended to allow restricted privilege escalation for administrative tasks. However when misconfigured in /etc/sudoers zsudo can be invoked by low-privileged users to execute arbitrary commands as root. This flaw enables local attackers with shell access to escalate privileges by writing a payload to a writable directory and executing it via zsudo. The vulnerability is particularly impactful in post-exploitation scenarios following web server compromise where the attacker inherits access to zsudo.
