Last modified

CVE-2013-4325 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. The check_permission_v1 function in base/pkit.py in HP Linux Imaging and Printing (HPLIP) through 3.13.9 does not properly use D-Bus for communication with a polkit authority, which allows local users to bypass intended access restrictions by leveraging a PolkitUnixProcess PolkitSubject race condition via a (1) setuid process or (2) pkexec process.. EPSS estimates a 0.42% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
