Package : systemd Version : 215-17+deb8u12 CVE ID : CVE-2017-18078 CVE-2019-3842
Two vulnerabilities have been addressed in the systemd components systemd-tmpfiles and pam_systemd.so. CVE-2017-18078 systemd-tmpfiles in systemd attempted to support ownership/permission changes on hardlinked files even if the fs.protected_hardlinks sysctl is turned off, which allowed local users to bypass intended access restrictions via vectors involving a hard link to a file for which the user lacked write access. CVE-2019-3842 It was discovered that pam_systemd did not properly sanitize the environment before using the XDG_SEAT variable. It was possible for an attacker, in some particular configurations, to set a XDG_SEAT environment variable which allowed for commands to be checked against polkit policies using the "allow_active" element rather than "allow_any". For Debian 8 "Jessie", these problems have been fixed in version 215-17+deb8u12. We recommend that you upgrade your systemd packages.
