Category: | Ubuntu Local Security Checks |
Title: | Ubuntu: Security Advisory (USN-2956-1) |
Summary: | The remote host is missing an update for the 'ubuntu-core-launcher' package(s) announced via the USN-2956-1 advisory. |
Description: | Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the 'ubuntu-core-launcher' package(s) announced via the USN-2956-1 advisory. Vulnerability Insight: Zygmunt Krynicki discovered that ubuntu-core-launcher did not properly sanitize its input and contained a logic error when determining the mountpoint of bind mounts when using snaps on Ubuntu classic systems (eg, traditional desktop and server). If a user were tricked into installing a malicious snap with a crafted snap name, an attacker could perform a delayed attack to steal data or execute code within the security context of another snap. This issue did not affect Ubuntu Core systems. Affected Software/OS: 'ubuntu-core-launcher' package(s) on Ubuntu 16.04. Solution: Please install the updated package(s). CVSS Score: 10.0 CVSS Vector: AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C |
