CVE-2025-12801Nfs-utils: rpc.mountd in the nfs-utils privilege escalation

Red Hat Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10; Red Hat Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8; Red Hat Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9; Red Hat Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9.4 Extended Upda… Published: (8 months ago)

Description

A vulnerability was recently discovered in the rpc.mountd daemon in the nfs-utils package for Linux, that allows a NFSv3 client to escalate the privileges assigned to it in the /etc/exports file at mount time. In particular, it allows the client to access any subdirectory or subtree of an exported directory, regardless of the set file permissions, and regardless of any 'root_squash' or 'all_squash' attributes that would normally be expected to apply to that client.

Weakness (CWE): CWE-279CWE-732

A flaw was found in abrt. abrt-server trusts a client-supplied PID when creating problem dumps over abrt.socket and, running as root, copies that process's /proc data (including environ) into a dump directory owned by the connecting unprivileged user. This al…

A flaw was found in abrt. The completeness check introduced to mitigate CVE-2026-54228 and CVE-2026-54229 only verifies that a dump directory contains a "count" element, which an unprivileged user can create. This allows a local attacker to bypass the guard a…
