CVE-2025-7406: Vulnerability in Nokia MantaRay NM
Nokia MantaRay NM is vulnerable to a sudo privilege escalation vulnerability where a local attacker possessing administrative (local admin) privileges can escalate to full root privileges on the host. Successful exploitation results in root-level access to the filesystem and the ability to execute actions as root. The risk can be temporarily mitigated by restricting the set of commands permitted via sudo for the affected accounts.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2025-7406 describes a sudo privilege escalation vulnerability in Nokia MantaRay NM. A local attacker who already has administrative (local admin) privileges can escalate their privileges to full root on the host. This grants root-level access to the filesystem and enables execution of arbitrary commands as root. The vulnerability does not currently have a published CVSS score or an official remediation. Temporary mitigation can be achieved by limiting the commands permitted via sudo for the affected accounts.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation allows an attacker with local administrative access to escalate to root privileges, gaining full control over the host system's filesystem and the ability to execute any command as root. This significantly increases the potential damage from an attacker who already has some level of local access.
Mitigation Recommendations
No official patch or fix has been confirmed. Temporary mitigation can be applied by restricting the set of commands allowed via sudo for the affected accounts to reduce the risk of privilege escalation. Monitor vendor advisories for updates regarding an official fix.
