CVE-2026-35367

Medium
Published: Translated: NVD NIST

Summary

The nohup utility in uutils coreutils creates its default output file, nohup.out, without specifying explicit restricted permissions. This causes the file to inherit umask-based permissions, typically resulting in a world-readable file (0644).

Risk Assessment

In multi-user environments, any user can read the nohup.out file, potentially leaking sensitive data written by the process launched with nohup.

Recommendation

Update uutils coreutils to a version where nohup explicitly sets restrictive permissions (e.g., 0600) for nohup.out. Until then, manually set appropriate permissions after running nohup.
