OCaml compiler allows attackers to have unspecified impact via unknown vectors, a similar issue to CVE-2017-9772 "but with much less impact."
Notes
| Author | Note |
|---|---|
| msalvatore | I believe this CVE has to do with unsafe handling of the TMPDIR environment variable in setuid binaries. Possible commits to resolve this are the same as those for CVE-2017-9772 binaries built with ocamlopt will need to be rebuilt after a system upgrade |
