CVE-2007-1856paul_vixievixie_cron+2
EPSS score0.38%
Vixie Cron before 4.1-r10 on Gentoo Linux is installed with insecure permissions, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (cron failure) by creating hard links, which results in a failed st_nlink check in database.c.CVE-2001-0559paul_vixievixie_cronEPSS score1.10%
crontab in Vixie cron 3.0.1 and earlier does not properly drop privileges after the failed parsing of a modification operation, which could allow a local attacker to gain additional privileges when an editor is called to correct the error.CVE-2001-0560paul_vixievixie_cronEPSS score0.51%
Buffer overflow in Vixie cron 3.0.1-56 and earlier could allow a local attacker to gain additional privileges via a long username (> 20 characters).CVE-2005-1038paul_vixievixie_cron+3EPSS score0.54%
crontab in Vixie cron 4.1, when running with the -e option, allows local users to read the cron files of other users by changing the file being edited to a symlink. NOTE: there is insufficient information to know whether this is a duplicate of CVE-2001-0235.CVE-2000-1096paul_vixievixie_cronEPSS score0.79%
crontab by Paul Vixie uses predictable file names for a temporary file and does not properly ensure that the file is owned by the user executing the crontab -e command, which allows local users with write access to the crontab spool directory to execute arbitrary commands by creating world-writeable temporary files and modifying them while the victim is editing the file.CVE-1999-0872calderaopenlinux+3EPSS score0.36%
Buffer overflow in Vixie cron allows local users to gain root access via a long MAILTO environment variable in a crontab file.CVE-1999-0297bsdibsd_os+3EPSS score0.40%
Buffer overflow in Vixie Cron library up to version 3.0 allows local users to obtain root access via a long environmental variable.CVE-1999-0769calderaopenlinux+3EPSS score0.80%
Vixie Cron on Linux systems allows local users to set parameters of sendmail commands via the MAILTO environmental variable.CVE-2006-2607debiancron+3EPSS score0.56%
do_command.c in Vixie cron (vixie-cron) 4.1 does not check the return code of a setuid call, which might allow local users to gain root privileges if setuid fails in cases such as PAM failures or resource limits, as originally demonstrated by a program that exceeds the process limits as defined in /etc/security/limits.conf.
