CVE-2021-25311
condor_credd in HTCondor before 8.9.11 allows Directory Traversal outside the SEC_CREDENTIAL_DIRECTORY_OAUTH directory, as demonstrated by creating a file under /etc that will later be executed by root.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (3.20%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
