CVE-2026-59680 1 Suse 1 Yast2-users 2026-09-01 8 High
An OS command injection vulnerability was found in yast2-users. When displaying the "Password Settings" tab of a user, get_password_term() in src/include/users/dialogs.rb read the shadowLastChange and shadowExpire fields with GetString(), which performs no numeric validation, and passed the resulting string to format_days_after_epoch(). That helper interpolated the value into a shell command executed via Ruby backticks without quoting or escaping. Impact: an administrator who manages users against an external/federated LDAP directory via `yast2 users` triggers root command execution the moment they view or edit that particular user's "Password Settings" tab. No "join domain" or trust setup is required, just browsing/editing one user entry. This issue affects yast2-users through 5.0.8.
CVE-2026-59681 1 Suse 1 Yast2-auth-client 2026-09-01 8.8 High
A OS command injection vulnerability in yast2-auth-client allows an attacker who controls Active Directory configuration values to execute arbitrary commands as root on the configured host. Auth::AuthConf in src/lib/auth/authconf.rb assembles the Samba net ads join, net ads lookup -S and net ads testjoin invocations by interpolating configuration values into a single command string and passing that string to Open3.popen2 / Open3.capture2, which causes Ruby to run it through /bin/sh. The Organizational Unit (ou), dnshostname, AD user name and AD domain name values are neither validated nor shell-quoted.
CVE-2026-25706 1 Suse 1 Yast2-samba-client 2026-09-01 7.5 High
Improper neutralization of special elements used in an OS command in yast2-samba-client allows an attacker who controls the content of an Active Directory directory tree - a rogue domain controller, or a directory user delegated the right to create objects - to execute arbitrary commands as root on a machine being joined to that domain. This issue affects yast2-samba-client through 5.0.4.
CVE-2008-4636 3 Novell, Opensuse, Suse 7 Linux Desktop, Open Enterprise Server, Opensuse and 4 more 2026-04-23 N/A
yast2-backup 2.14.2 through 2.16.6 on SUSE Linux and Novell Linux allows local users to gain privileges via shell metacharacters in filenames used by the backup process.
CVE-2016-1601 1 Suse 4 Linux Enterprise Desktop, Linux Enterprise Server, Linux Enterprise Software Development Kit and 1 more 2025-04-12 N/A
yast2-users before 3.1.47, as used in SUSE Linux Enterprise 12 SP1, does not properly set empty password fields in /etc/shadow during an AutoYaST installation when the profile does not contain inst-sys users, which might allow attackers to have unspecified impact via unknown vectors.
CVE-2019-3700 1 Suse 1 Yast2-security 2024-11-21 2.9 Low
yast2-security didn't use secure defaults to protect passwords. This became a problem on 2019-10-07 when configuration files that set secure settings were moved to a different location. As of the 20191022 snapshot the insecure default settings were used until yast2-security switched to stronger defaults in 4.2.6 and used the new configuration file locations. Password created during this time used DES password encryption and are not properly protected against attackers that are able to access the password hashes.
CVE-2018-20105 3 Opensuse, Suse, Yast2-rmt Project 3 Leap, Suse Linux Enterprise Server, Yast2-rmt 2024-11-21 4 Medium
A Inclusion of Sensitive Information in Log Files vulnerability in yast2-rmt of SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 15; openSUSE Leap allows local attackers to learn the password if they can access the log file. This issue affects: SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 15 yast2-rmt versions prior to 1.2.2. openSUSE Leap yast2-rmt versions prior to 1.2.2.
