| CVE-2016-7619 | 1 Apple | 3 Iphone Os, Mac Os X, Watchos | 2025-04-20 | 2.1 LOW | 5.5 MEDIUM |
| An issue was discovered in certain Apple products. iOS before 10.2 is affected. macOS before 10.12.2 is affected. watchOS before 3.1.3 is affected. The issue involves the "libarchive" component, which allows local users to write to arbitrary files via vectors related to symlinks. | |||||
| CVE-2017-12258 | 1 Cisco | 1 Unified Communications Manager | 2025-04-20 | 4.3 MEDIUM | 6.1 MEDIUM |
| A vulnerability in the web-based UI of Cisco Unified Communications Manager could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to execute a cross-frame scripting (XFS) attack. The vulnerability exists because the affected software does not provide sufficient protections for HTML inline frames (iframes). An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by directing a user of the affected software to an attacker-controlled web page that contains a malicious HTML inline frame. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to conduct click-jacking or other types of client-side browser attacks. Cisco Bug IDs: CSCve60993. | |||||
| CVE-2017-1301 | 1 Ibm | 1 Tivoli Storage Manager | 2025-04-20 | 3.6 LOW | 5.5 MEDIUM |
| IBM Spectrum Protect 7.1 and 8.1 could allow a local attacker to launch a symlink attack. IBM Spectrum Protect Backup-archive Client creates temporary files insecurely. A local attacker could exploit this vulnerability by creating a symbolic link from a temporary file to various files on the system, which could allow the attacker to overwrite arbitrary files on the system with elevated privileges. IBM X-Force ID: 125163. | |||||
| CVE-2017-8108 | 1 Cisofy | 1 Lynis | 2025-04-20 | 4.6 MEDIUM | 7.8 HIGH |
| Unspecified tests in Lynis before 2.5.0 allow local users to write to arbitrary files or possibly gain privileges via a symlink attack on a temporary file. | |||||
| CVE-2015-8860 | 1 Nodejs | 1 Node.js | 2025-04-20 | 5.0 MEDIUM | 7.5 HIGH |
| The tar package before 2.0.0 for Node.js allows remote attackers to write to arbitrary files via a symlink attack in an archive. | |||||
| CVE-2017-7418 | 1 Proftpd | 1 Proftpd | 2025-04-20 | 2.1 LOW | 5.5 MEDIUM |
| ProFTPD before 1.3.5e and 1.3.6 before 1.3.6rc5 controls whether the home directory of a user could contain a symbolic link through the AllowChrootSymlinks configuration option, but checks only the last path component when enforcing AllowChrootSymlinks. Attackers with local access could bypass the AllowChrootSymlinks control by replacing a path component (other than the last one) with a symbolic link. The threat model includes an attacker who is not granted full filesystem access by a hosting provider, but can reconfigure the home directory of an FTP user. | |||||
| CVE-2016-10374 | 1 Perltidy Project | 1 Perltidy | 2025-04-20 | 2.1 LOW | 5.5 MEDIUM |
| perltidy through 20160302, as used by perlcritic, check-all-the-things, and other software, relies on the current working directory for certain output files and does not have a symlink-attack protection mechanism, which allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files by creating a symlink, as demonstrated by creating a perltidy.ERR symlink that the victim cannot delete. | |||||
| CVE-2025-32817 | 2025-04-17 | N/A | 6.1 MEDIUM | ||
| A Improper Link Resolution vulnerability (CWE-59) in the SonicWall Connect Tunnel Windows (32 and 64 bit) client, this results in unauthorized file overwrite, potentially leading to denial of service or file corruption. | |||||
| CVE-2025-23010 | 2025-04-17 | N/A | 7.2 HIGH | ||
| An Improper Link Resolution Before File Access ('Link Following') vulnerability in SonicWall NetExtender Windows (32 and 64 bit) client which allows an attacker to manipulate file paths. | |||||
| CVE-2022-45412 | 4 Apple, Google, Linux and 1 more | 6 Macos, Android, Linux Kernel and 3 more | 2025-04-15 | N/A | 8.8 HIGH |

Windows is unaffected.*. This vulnerability affects Firefox ESR < 102.5, Thunderbird < 102.5, and Firefox < 107. | |||||
| CVE-2022-45798 | 2 Microsoft, Trendmicro | 2 Windows, Apex One | 2025-04-15 | N/A | 7.8 HIGH |
| A link following vulnerability in the Damage Cleanup Engine component of Trend Micro Apex One and Trend Micro Apex One as a Service could allow a local attacker to escalate privileges by creating a symbolic link and abusing the service to delete a file. Please note: an attacker must first obtain the ability to execute low-privileged code on the target system in order to exploit this vulnerability. | |||||
