# CVE-2012-10022

## Summary

- **CVE ID:** CVE-2012-10022
- **Severity:** HIGH
- **CVSS Score:** 8.5 (CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N)
- **CWE:** CWE-269
- **Published:** Aug 1, 2025
- **Last Modified:** May 15, 2026

## Description

Kloxo versions 6.1.12 and earlier contain two setuid root binaries—lxsuexec and lxrestart—that allow local privilege escalation from uid 48. The lxsuexec binary performs a uid check and permits execution of arbitrary commands as root if the invoking user matches uid 48. This flaw enables attackers with Apache-level access to escalate privileges to root without authentication.

## Affected Products

- LxCenter — Kloxo (*)
- LxCenter — Kloxo (0)
