CVE-2008-5099

by ·

Sun Logical Domain Manager (aka LDoms Manager or ldm) 1.0 through 1.0.3 displays the value of the OpenBoot PROM (OBP) security-password variable in cleartext, which allows local users to bypass the SPARC firmware’s password protection, and gain privileges or obtain data access, via the "ldm ls -l" command, a different vulnerability than CVE-2008-4992.
