The SSL certificate setup program (genSslCert.sh) in Standards Based Linux Instrumentation for Manageability (SBLIM) sblim-sfcb 1.3.2 allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on the (1) /var/tmp/key.pem, (2) /var/tmp/cert.pem, and (3) /var/tmp/ssl.cnf temporary files.

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2009-0416 is a local file overwrite issue in the SSL certificate setup script for SBLIM sblim-sfcb 1.3.2. A local user could abuse predictable temporary files to cause the script to overwrite files. Business urgency depends on whether this legacy management component exists and is run with elevated privileges. Exposure appears limited to systems running Standards Based Linux Instrumentation for Manageability sblim-sfcb 1.3.2 with genSslCert.sh present. Risk is higher on shared Linux systems or management hosts where untrusted local users exist and the certificate setup script may run with elevated privileges. Treat this as a targeted legacy-platform cleanup item, not an internet-scale emergency. Prioritize if affected hosts allow multiple local users or support privileged management workflows. No active exploitation is evidenced in the supplied sources. Mitigation focus: Inventory systems for sblim-sfcb 1.3.2 and genSslCert.sh.; Apply relevant vendor or distribution updates where available.; Check SUSE and upstream SBLIM guidance before relying on local workarounds..
