Description:
Dirk Wetter has reported two security issues in Dominion SX, which can be exploited by malicious, local users to disclose sensitive information, cause a DoS (Denial of Service), and potentially gain escalated privileges.
1) The default file permission of "/etc/shadow" is set to world-readable, which makes it possible to gain knowledge of the root user's password hash.
2) The default file permission of "/bin/busybox" is set to world-writable. This can be exploited to move or delete the file and potentially execute arbitrary code with another user's privileges by replacing it with a malicious file.
The security issues have been reported in DSX4, DSX8, DSX16, DSX32, and DSXA-48.
