Currently unrated
What is CVE-2010-3430?
The privilege-dropping implementation in the pam_env and pam_mail modules of Linux-PAM version 1.1.2 is susceptible to a vulnerability allowing local users to leverage unintended group permissions to access sensitive information. This issue can be exploited through a symlink attack on the .pam_environment file located within a user's home directory, which bypasses the expected security measures. The vulnerability arises due to an incomplete fix relating to an earlier issue, making it critical for users to mitigate the risk in their systems.
