CVE-2016-10345 [HIGH] CVE-2016-10345 passenger: File overwrite vulnerability in passenger-install-nginx-module
CVE-2016-10345 passenger: File overwrite vulnerability in passenger-install-nginx-module
A file overwrite vulnerability was found in passenger caused by a predictable temporary file being written by passenger-install-nginx-module. With access to the system, a user could plant a symlink in /tmp that resulted in a chosen-file overwrite attempt whenever passenger-install-nginx-module was run, using the access rights of the executing user, potentially even with chosen content.
