Description
A flaw was found in MSBuild’s temporary directory handling on Linux where predictable, non-randomized temporary paths are used. Local users can create or manipulate those paths before MSBuild runs, causing build failures or unexpected behavior and resulting in denial of service for build operations.
Statement
The Red Hat Product Security team has assessed this issue as Moderate. Predictable MSBuild temporary directory paths on Linux allow a local user to precreate or manipulate build temp directories, causing build failures (denial of service) on shared build hosts or CI runners using the affected .NET packages.
.NET 6.0 for RHEL-8, RHEL-9 and RHIVOS has reached its End of Life as of November 12, 2024, and is no longer supported. No fixes will be provided for this stream.
