A vulnerability was found in the device-mapper-multipath. The device-mapper-multipath allows local users to obtain root access, exploited alone or in conjunction with CVE-2022-41973. Local users that are able to write to UNIX domain sockets can bypass access controls and manipulate the multipath setup. This issue occurs because an attacker can repeat a keyword, which is mishandled when arithmetic ADD is used instead of bitwise OR. This could lead to local privilege escalation to root.

The remote Rocky Linux 9 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the RLSA-2022:8453 advisory.

  - A vulnerability was found in the device-mapper-multipath. The device-mapper-multipath allows local users     to obtain root access, exploited alone or in conjunction with CVE-2022-41973. Local users that are able to     write to UNIX domain sockets can bypass access controls and manipulate the multipath setup. This issue     occurs because an attacker can repeat a keyword, which is mishandled when arithmetic ADD is used instead     of bitwise OR. This could lead to local privilege escalation to root. (CVE-2022-3787)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2023-2023-126 advisory.

  - 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)
