CVE-2003-1452

19
FAUCET Score

CVE-2003-1452 describes an untrusted search path vulnerability in Qualcomm qpopper versions 4.0 through 4.05. This flaw allows local users to execute arbitrary code by manipulating the PATH environment variable to point to a malicious smbpasswd program. With a CVSS score of 3.6 (AV:L/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:N), it indicates low attack complexity and local access, potentially leading to partial confidentiality and integrity impact. While there is no evidence of active exploitation or KEV listing, an exploit for privilege escalation (EDB-21) exists, though community discussion and media coverage are minimal.
