CVE-2013-6441

Publication date 31 December 2013

Last updated 24 July 2024

Ubuntu priority

Medium

Why this priority?

The lxc-sshd template (templates/lxc-sshd.in) in LXC before 1.0.0.beta2 uses read-write permissions when mounting /sbin/init, which allows local users to gain privileges by modifying the init file.
