Test ID:	1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.1.10.2024.0071
Category:	Mageia Linux Local Security Checks
Title:	Mageia: Security Advisory (MGASA-2024-0071)
Summary:	The remote host is missing an update for the 'multipath-tools' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2024-0071 advisory.
Description:	Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the 'multipath-tools' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2024-0071 advisory. Vulnerability Insight: multipath-tools 0.7.7 through 0.9.x before 0.9.2 allows local users to obtain root access, as exploited in conjunction with CVE-2022-41974. Local users able to access /dev/shm can change symlinks in multipathd due to incorrect symlink handling, which could lead to controlled file writes outside of the /dev/shm directory. This could be used indirectly for local privilege escalation to root. (CVE-2022-41973) multipath-tools 0.7.0 through 0.9.x before 0.9.2 allows local users to obtain root access, as exploited alone or in conjunction with CVE-2022-41973. Local users able to write to UNIX domain sockets can bypass access controls and manipulate the multipath setup. This can lead to local privilege escalation to root. This occurs because an attacker can repeat a keyword, which is mishandled because arithmetic ADD is used instead of bitwise OR. (CVE-2022-41974) Affected Software/OS: 'multipath-tools' package(s) on Mageia 9. Solution: Please install the updated package(s). CVSS Score: 6.8 CVSS Vector: AV:L/AC:L/Au:S/C:C/I:C/A:C
