The apt-cacher-ng package of openSUSE Leap 15.1 runs operations in user owned directory /run/apt-cacher-ng with root privileges. This can allow local attackers to influence the outcome of these operations. This issue affects: openSUSE Leap 15.1 apt-cacher-ng versions prior to 3.1-lp151.3.3.1.
Weakness
The product does not properly assign, modify, track, or check privileges for an actor, creating an unintended sphere of control for that actor.
Affected Software
| Name | Vendor | Start Version | End Version |

| Apt-cacher-ng | Apt-cacher-ng_project | * | 3.1-lp151.3.3.1 (excluding) |
