Nix before 2.35.3, when unsandboxed on macOS or FreeBSD, incorrectly allows connections made by build users from daemon clients.
The multi-user installer in Nix before 2.35.3 sets the ownership of store contents to the user (who invoked the installer) even though it should be root ownership.
Nix before 2.35.3 and Lix before 2.95.4 on macOS allow a Seatbelt sandbox escape (for an unconfined build) because a certain size threshold is mishandled.
Nix before 2.35.3 and Lix before 2.95.4 allow privilege escalation via a repair operation because it could destroy and then replace a store path before content verification.
Nix before 2.35.3 and Lix before 2.95.4 have an integer overflow and resultant out-of-bounds write when evaluating untrusted expressions because list allocation is mishandled.
Nix is a package manager for Linux and other Unix systems. Prior to 2.35.0, a malicious derivation executed with the recursive-nix experimental feature can exploit a time-of-check/time-of-use race involving final symlink handling in the LocalStore restore path. The race can cause...
An issue was discovered in Nix before 2.34.7. Writing to arbitrary files can occur via "nix-prefetch-url --unpack" or "nix store prefetch-file --unpack" directory traversal. The fixed versions are 2.34.7, 2.33.6, 2.32.8, 2.31.5, 2.30.5, 2.29.4, and 2.28.7 (introduced in 2.24.7);
An issue was discovered in Nix before 2.34.7 and Lix before 2.95.2. Unbounded recursion in the NAR (Nix Archive) parser could lead to a stack-to-heap overflow when the parser is run on a coroutine stack. The stack is allocated without a guard page, which means that a stack overfl...
Nix is a package manager for Linux and other Unix systems. A bug in the fix for CVE-2024-27297 allowed for arbitrary overwrites of files writable by the Nix process orchestrating the builds (typically the Nix daemon running as root in multi-user installations) by following symlin...
Nix is a package manager for Linux and other Unix systems. Builds with Nix 2.30.0 on macOS were executed with elevated privileges (root), instead of the build users. The fix was applied to Nix 2.30.1. No known workarounds are available.
Nix is a package manager for Linux and other Unix systems. On macOS, built-in builders (such as builtin:fetchurl, exposed to users with import <nix/fetchurl.nix>) were not executed in the macOS sandbox. Thus, these builders (which are running under the nixbld* users) had read acc...
Nix is a package manager for Linux and other Unix systems. Starting in version 1.11 and prior to versions 2.18.8 and 2.24.8, <nix/fetchurl.nix> did not verify TLS certificates on HTTPS connections. This could lead to connection details such as full URLs or credentials leaking in...
Nix is a package manager for Linux and other Unix systems. A bug in Nix 2.24 prior to 2.24.6 allows a substituter or malicious user to craft a NAR that, when unpacked by Nix, causes Nix to write to arbitrary file system locations to which the Nix process has access. This will be...
Nix is a package manager for Linux and other Unix systems that makes package management reliable and reproducible. A build process has access to and can change the permissions of the build directory. After creating a setuid binary in a globally accessible location, a malicious lo...
Nix through 2.22.1 mishandles certain usage of hash caches, which makes it easier for attackers to replace current source code with attacker-controlled source code by luring a maintainer into accepting a malicious pull request.
Nix is a package manager for Linux and other Unix systems. A fixed-output derivations on Linux can send file descriptors to files in the Nix store to another program running on the host (or another fixed-output derivation) via Unix domain sockets in the abstract namespace. This a...
