CVSS v2.0
5.5
Medium
| Vector | AV:N/AC:L/Au:S/C:P/I:P/A:N |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Keepalived versions 2.2.4 and earlier
Description
The issue is related to insufficient restrictions in the D-Bus policy, allowing any user to inspect and manipulate properties. This can lead to access-control bypass in certain situations where an unrelated D-Bus system service has a settable property. The vulnerability can be exploited by a remote attacker to access confidential data and compromise its integrity.
Recommendations
For Keepalived versions 2.2.4 and earlier, consider restricting access to the D-Bus system service to minimize the risk of exploitation. As a temporary workaround, limit the ability of users to inspect and manipulate properties until a patch is available. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
