Symlink attack in Puppet (Mac OS)ID: oval:org.secpod.oval:def:6020 | Date: (C)2012-06-08 (M)2022-01-24 |
Class: VULNERABILITY | Family: macos |
The host is installed with Puppet 2.6.x before 2.6.15 or 2.7.x before 2.7.13 and is prone to symlink attack. A flaw is present in the applications, which fail to properly handle REST requests for a file from a remote filebucket. Successful exploitation allows attackers with an authorized SSL key and certain permissions on the puppet master to read arbitrary files via a symlink attack in conjunction with a crafted REST request for a file in a filebucket.
