CWE-269

Description

A privilege escalation attack was found in apport-cli 2.26.0 and earlier which is similar to CVE-2023-26604. If a system is specially configured to allow unprivileged users to run sudo apport-cli, less is configured as the pager, and the terminal size can be set: a local attacker can escalate privilege. It is extremely unlikely that a system administrator would configure sudo to allow unprivileged users to perform this class of exploit.

Affected configurations

• canonical apport (<= 2.26.0) • canonical ubuntu linux 18.04 • canonical ubuntu linux 20.04 • canonical ubuntu linux 22.04 • canonical ubuntu linux 22.10
