Found during an audit of openstack and all its dependencies. Error: nagios-plugins-1.4.16-6.el6ost/nagios-plugins-1.4.16/contrib/check_ipxping.c #define IPXPING_COMMAND "/tmp/ipxping/ipxping" The IPXPING_COMMAND is used to build command line that is executed later on using execv. As this is a predictable location in a public area a local attacker may place their own file in that location or symlink to another command. AFAICT little or no checks are made about the file permissions or ownership.
