CVE-2016-10345

Published: 18 April 2017

In Phusion Passenger before 5.1.0, a known /tmp filename was used during passenger-install-nginx-module execution, which could allow local attackers to gain the privileges of the passenger user.

Notes

AuthorNote
rodrigo-zaiden
the affected binary, passenger-install-nginx-module, is
not installed from Ubuntu package (as in Debian), so this
issue does not affect any Ubuntu releases.
