CVE-2013-2035

Published: 28 August 2013

Race condition in hawtjni-runtime/src/main/java/org/fusesource/hawtjni/runtime/Library.java in HawtJNI before 1.8, when a custom library path is not specified, allows local users to execute arbitrary Java code by overwriting a temporary JAR file with a predictable name in /tmp.

From the Ubuntu Security Team

It was discovered that HawtJNI wrote files with predictable names to /tmp. A local attacker could exploit a race condition by overwriting the predictably named temporary files, resulting in arbitrary code execution.
