Description John Helmert III archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2022-03-23 18:28:10 UTC
CVE-2022-23242:

TeamViewer Linux versions before 15.28 do not properly execute a deletion command for the connection password in case of a process crash. Knowledge of the crash event and the TeamViewer ID as well as either possession of the pre-crash connection password or local authenticated access to the machine would have allowed to establish a remote connection by reusing the not properly deleted connection password.

Please bump to 15.28.
