DescriptionCVE.org

A flaw was found in sblim-cmpi-base. Insecure temporary file creation in the provider registration scripts allows a local unprivileged user to perform a symlink attack. By creating a symlink in a world-writable directory, an attacker can redirect privileged writes to an arbitrary file during script execution in a privileged context. This can lead to the overwrite of root-owned files, potentially disrupting system services or operation. Exploitation is conditional on the script running with elevated privileges and may be mitigated by sticky-directory symlink protections.

AnalysisAI

Insecure temporary file creation in sblim-cmpi-base provider registration scripts exposes Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 through 10 to a local symlink attack, enabling a low-privileged user to redirect privileged file writes to arbitrary paths. When registration scripts execute under elevated (root) privileges, an attacker who pre-positions a symlink in a world-writable directory can cause those scripts to overwrite root-owned files, disrupting system services or integrity. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires: (1) a local unprivileged account on the target system (CVSS PR:L); (2) the sblim-cmpi-base provider registration scripts must execute in a privileged (root) context during the attack window - this is the explicit conditional stated in the description and is not guaranteed on all deployments; (3) the attacker must successfully time symlink placement before the privileged script references the temporary file path (CVSS AC:H - a race condition window). … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 3.1 base score of 6.3 (AV:L/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:H) accurately characterizes this as a moderate-to-medium priority. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in.
Remediation The primary remediation is to apply the vendor-released patch for sblim-cmpi-base once available from Red Hat via the standard errata process (https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2026-73585); no specific fixed version number was confirmed in the available intelligence at time of analysis. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
