CVE-2017-15288

7.8 highEPSS 0.3%

High (7.8) in scala-lang scala. EPSS 0.3% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days. Fixed in org.scala-lang:scala-compiler 2.10.7, 2.11.12, 2.12.4.

The compilation daemon in Scala before 2.10.7, 2.11.x before 2.11.12, and 2.12.x before 2.12.4 uses weak permissions for private files in /tmp/scala-devel/${USER:shared}/scalac-compile-server-port, which allows local users to write to arbitrary class files and consequently gain privileges.
