What is CVE-2001-1487?

The popauth utility in Qualcomm Qpopper versions 4.0 and earlier is susceptible to a vulnerability that permits local users to overwrite arbitrary files. This is achieved through a symlink attack on the -trace file option, which ultimately allows attackers to execute commands under the privileges of the pop user. Organizations using affected versions of Qpopper should take immediate action to mitigate this risk to safeguard their systems.
