CVE-2018-10870

It has been discovered that redhat-certification does not properly sanitize paths in rhcertStore.py:__saveResultsFile. A remote attacker could use this flaw to overwrite any file, potentially gaining remote code execution.

Mitigation

If SELinux is enabled it further restricts the set of files an attacker may write to. This prevents some basic attacks that would allow to gain remote code execution, though it is not excluded other means are possible.
