CVE-2012-5630

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions libuser versions 0.56 through 0.57

Description The issue is related to a TOCTOU (time-of-check time-of-use) race condition that occurs when copying and removing directory trees.

Recommendations For versions 0.56 and 0.57, consider implementing additional checks to mitigate the TOCTOU race condition until a patch is available. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the directory tree operations to minimize the risk of exploitation.
