CWE-287  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

Upgrade Debian:10 condor to version 7.8.2~dfsg.1-1+deb7u1 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream condor package and not the condor package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:10 relevant fixed versions and status.

The filesystem authentication (condor_io/condor_auth_fs.cpp) in Condor 7.6.x before 7.6.10 and 7.8.x before 7.8.4 uses authentication directories even when they have weak permissions, which allows remote attackers to impersonate users by renaming a user's authentication directory.
