What is CVE-2008-7300?

The Solaris Trusted Extensions implementation in Sun Solaris 10 and OpenSolaris versions from snv_39 to snv_67 is vulnerable to a significant security oversight, allowing remote authenticated users to circumvent Mandatory Access Control (MAC) policies. This can lead to unauthorized access to the global zone, compromising the integrity of the system and potentially exposing sensitive data.
