CVE-2025-14946 Dec 19, 13:16 MEDIUM PATCH This Month

Argument injection in libnbd's SSH transport allows an attacker who persuades a libnbd-using application or user to open a crafted NBD URI to run arbitrary commands with the privileges of the user running libnbd. The flaw affects libnbd builds that support nbd+ssh:// style connections and triggers when the hostname component of the URI begins with '-o', so the spawned ssh process interprets it as a command-line option instead of a host. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and no CISA KEV listing; exploitation remains gated by user interaction (a victim process must be induced to open the crafted URI), EPSS is low at 0.14% (3rd percentile), and Red Hat scores it 4.8 while our independent assessment applies a higher-impact vector (CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H) given the full confidentiality, integrity and availability impact of command execution.
