IdentifiercpeApplicabilitySubmitteddb.gcve.eu detailsRationale
CVE:CVE-2014-1420 vulnerable 2026-06-03 14:33:46.884453 Insecure temp file usage in Ubuntu UI toolkit
LOW (3.8)
On desktop, Ubuntu UI Toolkit's StateSaver would serialise data on tmp/ files which an attacker could use to expose potentially sensitive data. StateSaver would also open files without the O_EXCL flag. An attacker could exploit this to launch a symlink attack, though this is partially mitigated by symlink and hardlink restrictions in Ubuntu. Fixed in 1.1.1188+14.10.20140813.4-0ubuntu1.
