The event scripts in Automatic Bug Reporting Tool (ABRT) uses world-readable permission on a copy of sosreport file in problem directories, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information from /var/log/messages via unspecified vectors.

Security readout for executives and security teams

ABRT could leave a copied sosreport file readable by all local users inside problem directories. That report may include sensitive /var/log/messages content. This is mainly a confidentiality issue on systems where untrusted or lower-privileged local users can log in. Most relevant to Red Hat or ABRT/libreport deployments that generate sosreport data through ABRT problem handling. Exposure depends on affected package versions and local user access. The bundle does not identify exact affected versions or non-Red Hat products. Prioritize remediation on multi-user Linux servers and systems where logs may contain credentials, tokens, customer data, or sensitive infrastructure details. This is not evidenced as internet-exploitable or actively exploited in the supplied sources. Mitigation focus: Review RHSA-2015:1083 and RHSA-2015:1210 for vendor package guidance.; Update ABRT and libreport packages using supported vendor channels.; Restrict local shell access on affected systems where feasible..
