CVE-2017-14730 2 Elasticsearch, Gentoo 2 Logstash, Linux 2025-04-20 7.2 HIGH 7.8 HIGH
The init script in the Gentoo app-admin/logstash-bin package before 5.5.3 and 5.6.x before 5.6.1 has "chown -R" calls for user-writable directory trees, which allows local users to gain privileges by leveraging access to a $LS_USER account for creation of a hard link.
CVE-2017-15945 3 Gentoo, Mariadb, Mysql 3 Linux, Mariadb, Mysql 2025-04-20 7.2 HIGH 7.8 HIGH
The installation scripts in the Gentoo dev-db/mysql, dev-db/mariadb, dev-db/percona-server, dev-db/mysql-cluster, and dev-db/mariadb-galera packages before 2017-09-29 have chown calls for user-writable directory trees, which allows local users to gain privileges by leveraging access to the mysql account for creation of a link.
CVE-2014-4909 4 Canonical, Fedoraproject, Gentoo and 1 more 4 Ubuntu Linux, Fedora, Linux and 1 more 2025-04-12 6.8 MEDIUM N/A
Integer overflow in the tr_bitfieldEnsureNthBitAlloced function in bitfield.c in Transmission before 2.84 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted peer message, which triggers an out-of-bounds write.
CVE-2013-2032 3 Fedoraproject, Gentoo, Mediawiki 3 Fedora, Linux, Mediawiki 2025-04-11 5.0 MEDIUM N/A
MediaWiki before 1.19.6 and 1.20.x before 1.20.5 does not allow extensions to prevent password changes without using both Special:PasswordReset and Special:ChangePassword, which allows remote attackers to bypass the intended restrictions of an extension that only implements one of these blocks.
CVE-2010-1159 2 Aircrack-ng, Gentoo 2 Aircrack-ng, Linux 2025-04-11 6.8 MEDIUM N/A
Multiple heap-based buffer overflows in Aircrack-ng before 1.1 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and execute arbitrary code via a (1) large length value in an EAPOL packet or (2) long EAPOL packet.
CVE-2011-1549 1 Gentoo 2 Linux, Logrotate 2025-04-11 6.3 MEDIUM N/A
The default configuration of logrotate on Gentoo Linux 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 under /var/log/ for packages.
CVE-2013-2031 2 Gentoo, Mediawiki 2 Linux, Mediawiki 2025-04-11 4.3 MEDIUM N/A
MediaWiki before 1.19.6 and 1.20.x before 1.20.5 allows remote attackers to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks, as demonstrated by a CDATA section containing valid UTF-7 encoded sequences in a SVG file, which is then incorrectly interpreted as UTF-8 by Chrome and Firefox.
CVE-2013-0348 5 Acme, Fedoraproject, Gentoo and 2 more 5 Thttpd, Fedora, Linux and 2 more 2025-04-11 2.1 LOW N/A
thttpd.c in sthttpd before 2.26.4-r2 and thttpd 2.25b use world-readable permissions for /var/log/thttpd.log, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information by reading the file.
CVE-2007-1049 2 Gentoo, Wordpress 2 Linux, Wordpress 2025-04-09 4.3 MEDIUM N/A
Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the wp_explain_nonce function in the nonce AYS functionality (wp-includes/functions.php) for WordPress 2.0 before 2.0.9 and 2.1 before 2.1.1 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the file parameter to wp-admin/templates.php, and possibly other vectors involving the action variable.
CVE-2007-3531 1 Gentoo 2 Linux, Nvclock 2025-04-09 6.6 MEDIUM N/A
The set_default_speeds function in backend/backend.c in NVidia NVClock before 0.8b2 allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on the /tmp/nvclock temporary file.
CVE-2008-1734 1 Gentoo 2 Linux, Php Toolkit 2025-04-09 3.6 LOW N/A
Interpretation conflict in PHP Toolkit before 1.0.1 on Gentoo Linux might allow local users to cause a denial of service (PHP outage) and read contents of PHP scripts by creating a file with a one-letter lowercase alphabetic name, which triggers interpretation of a certain unquoted [a-z] argument as a matching shell glob for this name, rather than interpretation as the literal [a-z] regular-expression string, and consequently blocks the launch of the PHP interpreter within the Apache HTTP Server.
CVE-2006-7094 3 Debian, Ftpd, Gentoo 3 Debian Linux, Ftpd, Linux 2025-04-09 8.5 HIGH N/A
ftpd, as used by Gentoo and Debian Linux, sets the gid to the effective uid instead of the effective group id before executing /bin/ls, which allows remote authenticated users to list arbitrary directories with the privileges of gid 0 and possibly enable additional attack vectors.
CVE-2007-6337 2 Clam Anti-virus, Gentoo 2 Clamav, Linux 2025-04-09 10.0 HIGH N/A
Unspecified vulnerability in the bzip2 decompression algorithm in nsis/bzlib_private.h in ClamAV before 0.92 has unknown impact and remote attack vectors.
CVE-2008-1290 3 Gentoo, Redhat, Viewvc 3 Linux, Fedora, Viewvc 2025-04-09 4.3 MEDIUM N/A
ViewVC before 1.0.5 includes "all-forbidden" files within search results that list CVS or Subversion (SVN) commits, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information.
CVE-2007-3532 2 Gentoo, Nvidia 2 Linux, Video Driver 2025-04-09 7.2 HIGH N/A
NVIDIA drivers (nvidia-drivers) before 1.0.7185, 1.0.9639, and 100.14.11, as used in Gentoo Linux and possibly other distributions, creates /dev/nvidia* device files with insecure permissions, which allows local users to modify video card settings, cause a denial of service (crash or physical video card damage), and obtain sensitive information.
CVE-2007-4137 6 Conectiva, Gentoo, Mandrakesoft and 3 more 8 Linux, Linux, Mandrake Linux and 5 more 2025-04-09 7.5 HIGH N/A
Off-by-one error in the QUtf8Decoder::toUnicode function in Trolltech Qt 3 allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a crafted Unicode string that triggers a heap-based buffer overflow. NOTE: Qt 4 has the same error in the QUtf8Codec::convertToUnicode function, but it is not exploitable.
CVE-2007-6249 1 Gentoo 2 Linux, Portage 2025-04-09 2.1 LOW N/A
etc-update in Portage before 2.1.3.11 on Gentoo Linux relies on the umask to set permissions for the merge file, often resulting in permissions weaker than those of the original files, which might allow local users to obtain sensitive information by reading the merge file.
CVE-2008-1291 3 Gentoo, Redhat, Viewvc 3 Linux, Fedora, Viewvc 2025-04-09 4.3 MEDIUM N/A
ViewVC before 1.0.5 stores sensitive information under the web root with insufficient access control, which allows remote attackers to read files and list folders under the hidden CVSROOT folder.
CVE-2008-6756 2 Gentoo, Zoneminder 2 Linux, Zoneminder 2025-04-09 2.1 LOW N/A
ZoneMinder 1.23.3 on Gentoo Linux uses 0644 permissions for /etc/zm.conf, which allows local users to obtain the database username and password by reading this file.
CVE-2008-1292 3 Gentoo, Redhat, Viewvc 3 Linux, Fedora, Viewvc 2025-04-09 4.3 MEDIUM N/A
ViewVC before 1.0.5 provides revision metadata without properly checking whether access was intended, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information by reading (1) forbidden pathnames in the revision view, (2) log history that can only be reached by traversing a forbidden object, or (3) forbidden diff view path parameters.
