| CVE | Summary | Source | Max CVSS | EPSS % | Published | Updated |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| CVE-2006-7108 | login in util-linux-2.12a skips pam_acct_mgmt and chauth_tok when authentication is skipped, such as when a Kerberos krlogin session has been established, which might allow users to bypass intended access policies that would be enforced by pam_acct_mgmt and chauth_tok. | [email protected] | 4.1 | 0.06% | 2007-03-04 | 2026-04-23 |
| CVE-2005-2876 | umount in util-linux 2.8 to 2.12q, 2.13-pre1, and 2.13-pre2, and other packages such as loop-aes-utils, allows local users with unmount permissions to gain privileges via the -r (remount) option, which causes the file system to be remounted with just the read-only flag, which effectively clears the nosuid, nodev, and other flags. | [email protected] | 7.2 | 0.05% | 2005-09-13 | 2026-04-16 |
| CVE-2004-0080 | The login program in util-linux 2.11 and earlier uses a pointer after it has been freed and reallocated, which could cause login to leak sensitive data. | [email protected] | 5.0 | 2.93% | 2004-03-03 | 2026-04-16 |
| CVE-2003-0094 | A patch for mcookie in the util-linux package for Mandrake Linux 8.2 and 9.0 uses /dev/urandom instead of /dev/random, which causes mcookie to use an entropy source that is more predictable than expected, which may make it easier for certain types of attacks to succeed. | [email protected] | 5.0 | 0.62% | 2003-03-03 | 2026-04-16 |
| CVE-2001-1175 | vipw in the util-linux package before 2.10 causes /etc/shadow to be world-readable in some cases, which would make it easier for local users to perform brute force password guessing. | [email protected] | 7.2 | 0.05% | 2002-04-01 | 2026-04-16 |
| CVE-2001-1147 | The PAM implementation in /bin/login of the util-linux package before 2.11 causes a password entry to be rewritten across multiple PAM calls, which could provide the credentials of one user to a different user, when used in certain PAM modules such as pam_limits. | [email protected] | 7.2 | 0.06% | 2001-10-08 | 2026-04-16 |
