Severity: Medium
Published: Apr 24, 2019, 9:29:00 PM UTC
Source: [NVD] · [CVE record]
EPSS: 2.49% · Oct 25, 2026

snap-confine in snapd before 2.38 incorrectly set the ownership of a snap application to the uid and gid of the first calling user. Consequently, that user had unintended access to a private /tmp directory.
