| Package | Affected versions | Patched versions |
|---|---|---|
| logrotate | ≥ 3.17.0, < 3.20.0 | 3.20.0 |
A vulnerability was found in logrotate in how the state file is created. The state file is used to prevent parallel executions of multiple instances of logrotate by acquiring and releasing a file lock. When the state file does not exist, it is created with world-readable permission, allowing an unprivileged user to lock the state file, stopping any rotation. This flaw affects logrotate versions before 3.20.0.
