Security readout for executives and security teams
CVE-2003-0091 is a local privilege escalation flaw in Solaris lpq. A user with local access to affected Solaris 2.6 or 7 systems could potentially gain root privileges. Business urgency depends on whether these legacy systems still exist and allow local shell access. Exposure is most likely in legacy Solaris 2.6 or Solaris 7 environments where the lpq printing utility is installed and local users can execute it. Modern environments are unlikely to be exposed unless old Solaris systems remain in production, labs, or embedded operational roles. Treat this as high priority only where legacy Solaris 2.6 or 7 systems remain reachable by local users. The flaw can convert ordinary local access into root control, but the bundle does not show remote attack capability or active exploitation. Mitigation focus: Inventory Solaris 2.6 and Solaris 7 systems still in use.; Check Sun or Oracle guidance for the relevant lpq security update.; Restrict local shell access on legacy Solaris hosts..
