{"id":"CVE-2022-37705","details":"A privilege escalation flaw was found in Amanda 3.5.1 in which the backup user can acquire root privileges. The vulnerable component is the runtar SUID program, which is a wrapper to run /usr/bin/tar with specific arguments that are controllable by the attacker. This program mishandles the arguments passed to tar binary (it expects that the argument name and value are separated with a space; however, separating them with an equals sign is also supported),","modified":"2026-07-15T01:48:51.889487401Z","published":"2023-04-16T00:00:00Z","related":["openSUSE-SU-2023:0069-1","openSUSE-SU-2024:12706-1"],"database_specific":{"cna_assigner":"mitre","osv_generated_from":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2022/37xxx/CVE-2022-37705.json"},"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"http://www.amanda.org/"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/zmanda/amanda/releases/tag/tag-community-3.5.3"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://lists.debian.org/debian-lts-announce/2024/09/msg00023.html"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://marc.info/?l=amanda-hackers"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2022/37xxx/CVE-2022-37705.json"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/package-announce%40lists.fedoraproject.org/message/A5DCLSX5YYTWMKSMDL67M5STZ5ZDSOXK/"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/package-announce%40lists.fedoraproject.org/message/ATMGMVS3QDN6OMKMHGUTUTU7NS7HR3BZ/"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/package-announce%40lists.fedoraproject.org/message/JYREA6LFXF5M7K4WLNJV5VNQPS4MTBW2/"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2022-37705"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://github.com/zmanda/amanda/issues/192"},{"type":"FIX","url":"https://github.com/zmanda/amanda/pull/194"},{"type":"FIX","url":"https://github.com/zmanda/amanda/pull/196"},{"type":"FIX","url":"https://github.com/zmanda/amanda/pull/204"},{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://github.com/MaherAzzouzi/CVE-2022-37705"},{"type":"ARTICLE","url":"https://lists.debian.org/debian-lts-announce/2023/12/msg00003.html"}],"affected":[{"ranges":[{"type":"GIT","repo":"https://github.com/zmanda/amanda","events":[{"introduced":"aed518ee41a70042837fbc15579797526febc805"},{"fixed":"60032f14aeefe63d2b92e01496667315430c5923"}],"database_specific":{"cpe":"cpe:2.3:a:zmanda:amanda:3.5.1:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","extracted_events":[{"introduced":"3.5.1"},{"last_affected":"3.5.1"}],"source":["CPE_STRING","REFERENCES"]}}],"versions":["3.5.1","tag-community-3.5.2","tag-core-3.6.rel","tag-community-3.5.1","subtag-community-3.5.1"],"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/cve-osv-conversion/osv-output/CVE-2022-37705.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.7.5"}
