CVE-2017-15288 · GHSA-qvxv-pmq9-4q7g
- Affected
- Maven org.scala-lang:scala-compiler < 2.10.7; >= 2.11.0, < 2.11.12; >= 2.12.0, < 2.12.4
- Fixed in
- 2.12.42.11.122.10.7· Vendor fix available
- Issue
- The compilation daemon in Scala before 2.10.7, 2.11.x before 2.11.12, and 2.12.x before 2.12.4 uses weak permissions for private files in /tmp/scala-devel/${USER:shared}/scalac-compile-server-port, which allows local users to write to arbitrary class files and consequently gain privileges.
Recommended action: Upgrade to 2.12.4, 2.11.12 or 2.10.7 by release line, then redeploy and verify.A vendor fix does not resolve your finding until you verify it in your own systems.
