Pardus Parental Control
Monthly
Local privilege abuse in TUBITAK BILGEM Pardus-Parental-Control (versions up to and including 0.5.1, fixed in 0.7.0) lets a low-privileged local user exploit insecure file/resource permissions to tamper with the tool's DNS configuration and perform DNS spoofing. Because the CVSS scope is changed (S:C), the impact reaches beyond the application to system-wide name resolution, enabling redirection of traffic, bypass of parental filtering, and interception of connections. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis, but the reachable local vector and low complexity make this a practical concern on shared or managed Pardus endpoints.
