CVE-2011-3351 [HIGH] CVE-2011-3351 openvas-scanner: Insecure temporary file use by generation of an OVAL system characteristics document, when ovaldi support enabled
CVE-2011-3351 openvas-scanner: Insecure temporary file use by generation of an OVAL system characteristics document, when ovaldi support enabled
It was reported that the scanner module for the Open Vulnerability Assessment System (OpenVAS) used insecure way for creation of a temporary file, when generating OVAL system characteristics document from the knowledge base data available, with the ovaldi integrated tool enabled. A local attacker could use this flaw to conduct symlink attacks to overwrite arbitrary files on the system, accessible with the privileges of the user running the SLAD daemon and / or the ovaldi OVAL interpreter.
