CVE-2011-0412: Oracle Solaris 8, 9, and 10 stores back-out patch files (undo.Z) unencrypted with world-readable permission...

Oracle Solaris 8, 9, and 10 stores back-out patch files (undo.Z) unencrypted with world-readable permissions under /var/sadm/pkg/, which allows local users to obtain password hashes and conduct brute force password guessing attacks.

Security readout for executives and security teams

Some older Solaris systems may leave readable patch rollback files containing password hashes. A local user could copy those hashes and try to crack passwords offline. This is not described as remote code execution, but it can undermine account security on legacy servers. Exposure is most likely on legacy Oracle Solaris 8, 9, or 10 hosts where patch back-out files exist under /var/sadm/pkg/. The source bundle indicates a local-user attack path, not direct internet exposure. Prioritize if legacy Solaris remains in production, especially shared systems with multiple local users. Treat confirmed hash exposure as credential risk requiring remediation and possible password rotation. Mitigation focus: Review Oracle April 2011 CPU guidance for Solaris remediation details.; Inventory remaining Solaris 8, 9, and 10 systems.; Restrict local account access on affected legacy systems..
