Overview

This vulnerability has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.1, rated HIGH. It can be exploited remotely over the network. Some level of privileges is required for exploitation.

Technical Description

CodexBar prior to 0.32.0 contains a privilege escalation vulnerability in the CLI installer that allows local attackers to execute arbitrary commands as root by exploiting a race condition in temporary file handling. The installer creates a temporary file with mktemp, writes a privileged shell payload into it, and executes it with administrator privileges via bash, allowing a same-user local process to rewrite the installer body before the administrator prompt is approved, causing attacker-controlled commands to run as root.
