CVE-2008-0001

Publication date 15 January 2008

Last updated 24 July 2024

Ubuntu priority

Low

Why this priority?

VFS in the Linux kernel before 2.6.22.16, and 2.6.23.x before 2.6.23.14, performs tests of access mode by using the flag variable instead of the acc_mode variable, which might allow local users to bypass intended permissions and remove directories.
