Solaris arp allows local users to read files via the -f parameter, which lists lines in the file that do not parse properly.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This old Solaris issue could let a local user make the arp utility reveal lines from files it was asked to parse. The source bundle does not identify affected Solaris versions, a CVSS score, or a vendor fix. Business risk is mainly on legacy Solaris systems with local user access. Exposure is likely limited to legacy Solaris systems where local users can run the vulnerable arp behavior. The provided records do not define affected versions or CPEs. Treat this as a legacy-platform hygiene issue unless Solaris systems with local users remain important to operations. Prioritize inventory and patch verification over emergency response. Mitigation focus: Inventory Solaris hosts and determine whether this arp behavior is present.; Check Sun or Oracle Solaris guidance for patches or configuration advice.; Restrict local shell access to trusted users only..
