Detailsinfo

A vulnerability classified as problematic has been found in snowflakedb gosnowflake up to 1.13.2 on Linux/macOS. Affected is an unknown code of the component Easy Logging. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a toctou vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-367. The product checks the state of a resource before using that resource, but the resource's state can change between the check and the use in a way that invalidates the results of the check. This can cause the product to perform invalid actions when the resource is in an unexpected state. This is going to have an impact on confidentiality. CVE summarizes:

gosnowflake is the Snowflake Golang driver. Versions starting from 1.7.0 to before 1.13.3, are vulnerable to a Time-of-Check to Time-of-Use (TOCTOU) race condition. When using the Easy Logging feature on Linux and macOS, the Driver reads logging configuration from a user-provided file. On Linux and macOS the Driver verifies that the configuration file can be written to only by its owner. That check was vulnerable to a TOCTOU race condition and failed to verify that the file owner matches the user running the Driver. This could allow a local attacker with write access to the configuration file or the directory containing it to overwrite the configuration and gain control over logging level and output location. This issue has been patched in version 1.13.3.

The advisory is available at github.com. This vulnerability is traded as CVE-2025-46327 since 04/23/2025. The exploitability is told to be easy. Local access is required to approach this attack. The technical details are unknown and an exploit is not available.
