Description:
A vulnerability has been identified in PHPki, which can be exploited by malicious, local users to escalate their privileges on a vulnerable system.
The vulnerability is caused due to insecure creation of temporary files. This can be exploited via symlink attacks to manipulate arbitrary files on a system with the privileges of the user running PHPki.
Reportedly, permissions set by the "secure.sh" script have also been tightened.
