CVE-2025-27591 is a privilege escalation vulnerability that affected the Below service before version 0.9.0# CVE-2025-27591 Proof Of Concept
CVE-2025-27591 is a privilege escalation vulnerability that affected the Below service before version 0.9.0. The issue arose due to the creation of a world-writable directory at /var/log/below. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by manipulating symlinks within this directory and potentially gain root privileges, making it a significant security concern for local unprivileged users.
This Proof-of-Concept was written for educational and research purposes only.
At the time of writing, no publicly available PoC for this vulnerability existed in the community.Therefore, I decided to responsibly share this implementation in order to fill that gap, contribute tothe security research ecosystem, and raise awareness about the critical nature of insecure filesystem.
