Vulnerability Name:

CVE-2004-0564 (CCN-17576)

Assigned:2004-10-04
Published:2004-10-04
Updated:2017-07-11
Summary:Roaring Penguin pppoe (rp-ppoe), if installed or configured to run setuid root contrary to its design, allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files.
Note: the developer has publicly disputed the claim that this is a vulnerability because pppoe "is NOT designed to run setuid-root." Therefore this identifier applies *only* to those configurations and installations under which pppoe is run setuid root despite the developer's warnings.
