CVE-2023-3899: Subscription-manager: inadequate authorization of com.redhat.rhsm1 d-bus interface allows local users to modify configuration

First published: Tue Jul 25 2023(Updated: )

Red Hat Enterprise Linux could allow a local authenticated attacker to gain elevated privileges on the system, caused by improper authorization by the subscription-manager. By sending a specially crafted request through D-Bus interface com.redhat.RHSM1, an authenticated attacker could exploit this vulnerability to gain elevated privileges to an unconfined root.
