    aptdaemon Information Disclosure via Improper Input Validation in Transaction class

    CVE-2020-15703 · GHSA-wpmr-q825-x4c6

    Affected
    • PyPI aptdaemon < 1.1.1
    Fixed in
    1.1.1· Vendor fix available
    Issue
    There is no input validation on the Locale property in an apt transaction. An unprivileged user can supply a full path to a writable directory, which lets aptd read a file as root. Having a symlink in place results in an error message if the file exists, and no error otherwise. This way an unprivileged user can check for the existence of any files on the system as root.

    Recommended action: Upgrade to 1.1.1 or later, then redeploy and verify.A vendor fix does not resolve your finding until you verify it in your own systems.
