CVE-2012-4425
Estado: ModificadaMedia (6.9)—💥 Exploit
libgio, when used in setuid or other privileged programs in spice-gtk and possibly other products, allows local users to gain privileges and execute arbitrary code via the DBUS_SYSTEM_BUS_ADDRESS environment variable. NOTE: it could be argued that this is a vulnerability in the applications that do not cleanse environment variables, not in libgio itself.
CVSS
- Versión: 2.0
- Vector: AV:L/AC:M/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C
- Puntuación base: 6.9
Probabilidad de explotación (EPSS)
- Probabilidad de explotación en los próximos 30 días: 1.09%
- Percentil entre todas las CVEs puntuadas: 64
- Fecha de la puntuación: 6/10/2026
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, de FIRST) estima la probabilidad de que una vulnerabilidad sea explotada en 30 días. Complementa a CVSS (impacto) y a CISA KEV (explotación confirmada).
💥 Exploits públicos
Hay código de explotación o plantillas de detección públicos. No es lo mismo que explotación activa confirmada (KEV), pero aumenta el riesgo: parchee con prioridad.
