Estado: ModificadaAlta (7.8)—💥 Exploit

Se ha descubierto un problema en el cliente de línea de comandos Keybase, en versiones anteriores a la 2.8.-20181023124437, para Linux. Una vulnerabilidad de ruta de búsqueda no fiable en la aplicación keybase-redirector permite que un usuario local sin privilegios en Linux obtenga privilegios root mediante un binario troyano.

CVSS

Probabilidad de explotación (EPSS)

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.
