Linux-Nfs: >> Nfs-Utils >> 1.2.6 Security Vulnerabilities
The nfs-utils package in SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 12 before and including version 1.3.0-34.18.1 and in SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 15 before and including version 2.1.1-6.10.2 the directory /var/lib/nfs is owned by statd:nogroup. This directory contains files owned and managed by root. If statd is compromised, it can therefore trick processes running with root privileges into creating/overwriting files anywhere on the system.

rpc-gssd in nfs-utils before 1.2.8 performs reverse DNS resolution for server names during GSSAPI authentication, which might allow remote attackers to read otherwise-restricted files via DNS spoofing attacks.
