org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-loader-tools is a for Spring Boot Loader Tools. Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Symlink privilege escalation. Spring Boot supports an embedded launch script that can be used to easily run the application as a systemd or init.d linux service. The script included with Spring Boot 1.5.9 and earlier is susceptible to a symlink attack which allows the “run_user” to overwrite and take ownership of any file on the same system. Note: In order to instigate the attack, the application must be installed as a service and the “run_user” requires shell access to the server. How to fix Symlink privilege escalation?
