CVE-2012-6607

Publication date 23 November 2013

Last updated 24 July 2024

Ubuntu priority

Low

Why this priority?

The transform_save function in transform.c in Augeas before 1.0.0 allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files and obtain sensitive information via a symlink attack on a .augsave file in a backup save action, a different vector than CVE-2012-0786.
