| Revision Date: | 2013-12-09 | Version: | 1 | | Title: | CVE-2013-4270 on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS (precise) - low. | | Description: | The net_ctl_permissions function in net/sysctl_net.c in the Linux kernel before 3.11.5 does not properly determine uid and gid values, which allows local users to bypass intended /proc/sys/net restrictions via a crafted application. Miroslav Vadkerti discovered a flaw in how the permissions for network sysctls are handled in the Linux kernel. An unprivileged local user could exploit this flaw to have privileged access to files in /proc/sys/net/.
