What is CVE-1999-1433?

A vulnerability in HP JetAdmin D.01.09 for Solaris allows local users to perform a symlink attack, enabling them to modify the permissions of arbitrary files through manipulation of the /tmp/jetadmin.log file. This behavior can lead to unauthorized access and potential exploitation of other local resources. Proper safeguards should be implemented to avoid symlink abuse and protect system integrity.
