      <title>CVE-2018-6557 — Insecure temporary file use in base-files</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2018-6557</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; Ubuntu base-files&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The MOTD update script in the base-files package in Ubuntu 18.04 LTS before 10.1ubuntu2.2, and Ubuntu 18.10 before 10.1ubuntu6 incorrectly handled temporary files. A local attacker could use this issue to cause a denial of service, or possibly escalate privileges if kernel symlink restrictions were disabled.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
