Vendor Workaround
To prevent exploitation, ensure NetworkManager is not configured to use the `dhclient` backend. The default configuration on Red Hat Enterprise Linux does not enable `dhclient`. If a custom configuration file, such as `/etc/NetworkManager/conf.d/00-dhcp.conf`, contains `[main] dhcp=dhclient`, remove or comment out this line. After modifying the configuration, restart the NetworkManager service: `sudo systemctl restart NetworkManager` Warning: Restarting the NetworkManager service will temporarily disrupt network connectivity.

| Description | A flaw was found in NetworkManager. This local privilege escalation vulnerability exists in NetworkManager's dhclient backend when processing malformed Manufacturer Usage Description (MUD) URLs. A local user can exploit this flaw to escalate privileges by triggering a script via a crafted MUD URL, provided an administrator has explicitly configured NetworkManager to use dhclient. This issue does not affect default configurations of NetworkManager. | |
