fcronsighup in Fcron 2.0.1, 2.9.4, and possibly earlier versions allows local users to delete arbitrary files or create arbitrary empty files via a target filename with a large number of leading slash (/) characters such that fcronsighup does not properly append the intended fcrontab.sig to the resulting string.

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2004-1032 is an old local vulnerability in Fcron's fcronsighup utility. A local user could cause deletion of arbitrary files or creation of empty files. Business risk is mainly to legacy systems still running affected Fcron versions, especially shared Unix/Linux hosts. Exposure is limited to systems with affected Fcron installed and local user access. Internet-facing exposure is not indicated in the provided sources. Treat as a legacy exposure cleanup item unless affected Fcron is found on shared or sensitive systems. Prioritize validation in older Linux/Unix estates and decommissioned-but-running hosts. Mitigation focus: Inventory systems for Fcron 2.0.1, 2.9.4, and earlier versions.; Check Fcron, Gentoo, or OS vendor guidance for fixed package versions.; Upgrade or remove Fcron where vendor guidance confirms remediation..
