The Netlink implementation in the Linux kernel through 3.14.1 does not provide a mechanism for authorizing socket operations based on the opener of a socket, which allows local users to bypass intended access restrictions and modify network configurations by using a Netlink socket for the (1) stdout or (2) stderr of a setuid program.
AnalysisAI
The Netlink implementation in the Linux kernel through 3.14.1 does not provide a mechanism for authorizing socket operations based on the opener of a socket, which allows local users to bypass. Rated low severity (CVSS 2.1), this vulnerability is low attack complexity.
Technical ContextAI
This vulnerability is classified under CWE-264. The Netlink implementation in the Linux kernel through 3.14.1 does not provide a mechanism for authorizing socket operations based on the opener of a socket, which allows local users to bypass intended access restrictions and modify network configurations by using a Netlink socket for the (1) stdout or (2) stderr of a setuid program. Affected products include: Linux Linux Kernel, Opensuse Evergreen, Redhat Enterprise Linux Desktop, Redhat Enterprise Linux Server, Suse Linux Enterprise Real Time Extension. Version information: through 3.14.1.
RemediationAI
A vendor patch is available. Apply the latest security update as soon as possible. Apply vendor patches when available. Implement network segmentation and monitoring as interim mitigations.
