It was discovered freeradius up to and including version 3.0.19 does not correctly configure logrotate, allowing a local attacker who already has control of the radiusd user to escalate his privileges to root, by tricking logrotate into writing a radiusd-writable file to a directory normally inaccessible by the radiusd user. NOTE: the upstream software maintainer has stated "there is simply no way for anyone to gain privileges through this alleged issue."

CVE-2019-10143 [HIGH] CVE-2019-10143 freeradius: privilege escalation due to insecure logrotate configuration
CVE-2019-10143 freeradius: privilege escalation due to insecure logrotate configuration
A reverse-shell facilitating situation due to insecure logrotate configuration leading to privilege escalation.
Discussion:
Created freeradius tracking bugs for this issue:
Affects: fedora-all [bug 1705343]
---
It is possible for the radiusd user to abuse logrotate to write files in directories normally writable only by root (or other users). freeradius uses logrotate to rotate its logs, but if the radiusd user replaces its log directory with a link to another directory, he could writes file in directories where he normally could not write, possibly leading to code execution as root.
Given the attack can be performed only from the radiusd user, Privilege Required(PR) in CVSSv3 is set to High(H).
