Oh, Snap! Security Holes Found in Linux Packaging System

Oh, Snap! Security Holes Found in Linux Packaging System

Hi!

there is no mentioning of this security hole in the security advisories: https://thenewstack.io/oh-snap-security-holes-found-in-linux-packaging-system/ 

Does this mean that ctrlX CORE is not effected?

Thanks

Hi J,

we have internally analyzed the vulnerabilities when we were first notified about it a while back.

To exploit the vulnerabilities, a local user account on the device with shell access is required. This is by default not the case on the ctrlX CORE. You have to request a system-user to be able to log in via e.g. SSH first - and then you already have root permissions, which makes the exploitation obsolete.

So - no, we are not affected and therefore no advisory was published.
