NewStart CGSL MAIN 7.02 : tuned Vulnerability (NS-SA-2025-0073)

high Nessus Plugin ID 238009

Synopsis

The remote NewStart CGSL host is affected by a vulnerability.

Description

The remote NewStart CGSL host, running version MAIN 7.02, has tuned packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability:

 - A script injection vulnerability was identified in the Tuned package. The `instance_create()` D-Bus function can be called by locally logged-in users without authentication. This flaw allows a local non- privileged user to execute a D-Bus call with `script_pre` or `script_post` options that permit arbitrary scripts with their absolute paths to be passed. These user or attacker-controlled executable scripts or programs could then be executed by Tuned with root privileges that could allow attackers to local privilege escalation. (CVE-2024-52336)

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

Solution

Upgrade the vulnerable CGSL tuned packages. Note that updated packages may not be available yet. Please contact ZTE for more information.
