- CVEs with nessus.description==The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-200412-04 (Perl: Insecure temporary file creation)
Some Perl modules create temporary files in world-writable directories with predictable names.
Impact :
A local attacker could create symbolic links in the temporary files directory, pointing to a valid file somewhere on the filesystem.
When a Perl script is executed, this would result in the file being overwritten with the rights of the user running the utility, which could be the root user.
Workaround :
There is no known workaround at this time.
