CVSS 3.1
6.4 mediumCVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:H/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:HCVE-2024-9312
Medium (6.4) in canonical authd. EPSS 0.3% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days. Fixed in github.com/ubuntu/authd 0.3.6.
Authd, through version 0.3.6, did not sufficiently randomize user IDs to prevent collisions. A local attacker who can register user names could spoof another user's ID and gain their privileges.
