CVE-2017-11565

CVE-2017-11565 describes a vulnerability in the debian/tor.init script of the Debian tor_0.2.9.11-1~deb9u1 package for Tor. This flaw arises from an incorrect implementation of AppArmor execution, where the script assumes a static pathname for aa-exec, leading to a bypass of intended AppArmor restrictions when that pathname changes. The vulnerability is rated as High severity (CVSS 7.5), indicating a network-based attack with low complexity that can lead to a high impact on integrity, though it does not affect systems using systemd for Tor startup. There is no evidence of active exploitation, public exploit code, or significant community discussion surrounding this CVE.
