Exploitation Summary
EIP tracks 1 public exploit for CVE-1999-1402. PoCs published by Thamer Al-Herbish.
AI-analyzed exploit summary This exploit demonstrates a vulnerability in Solaris 2.6 and other Unix-like systems where Unix domain sockets are created with overly permissive permissions (mode 4777). The code binds a socket to a path in /tmp, making it accessible to any user, which could lead to unauthorized connections or data injection.
Description
The access permissions for a UNIX domain socket are ignored in Solaris 2.x and SunOS 4.x, and other BSD-based operating systems before 4.4, which could allow local users to connect to the socket and possibly disrupt or control the operations of the program using that socket.
