Description

The Code42 app before 6.8.4, as used in Code42 for Enterprise, on Linux installs with overly permissive permissions on the /usr/local/crashplan/log directory. This allows a user to manipulate symbolic links to escalate privileges, or show the contents of sensitive files that a regular user would not have access to.
