The host is installed with Puppet 2.6.x before 2.6.14 or 2.7.x before 2.7.11 and is prone to privilege escalation vulnerability. A flaw is present in the application, which fails to properly handle k5login type. Successful exploitation allows attackers to gain privileges via a symlink attack on .k5login.
