CVE-2011-0343

Published: 28 January 2011

Balabit syslog-ng 2.0, 3.0, 3.1, 3.2 OSE and PE, when running on FreeBSD or HP-UX, does not properly perform cast operations, which causes syslog-ng to use a default value of -1 to create log files with insecure permissions (07777), which allows local users to read and write to these log files.

Notes

AuthorNote
sbeattie
only affects people running syslog-ng on kfreebsd, as fchmod when
passed with -1 doesn't change the mode on files.

Priority

Low
