It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2025-6018 exists.\n\nAffected product: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-6018/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-6018/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-6018","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-6018/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-6018","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-cg9q-xmf9-7r6w","SUSE-RU-2025:20479-1","SUSE-SU-2025:02001-1","SUSE-SU-2025:02002-1","SUSE-SU-2025:02003-1","SUSE-SU-2025:02004-1","SUSE-SU-2025:02005-1","SUSE-SU-2025:02015-1","SUSE-SU-2025:02026-1","SUSE-SU-2025:02031-1","SUSE-SU-2025:02032-1","SUSE-SU-2025:02080-1","SUSE-SU-2025:02081-1","SUSE-SU-2025:02082-1","SUSE-SU-2025:20496-1","SUSE-SU-2025:20513-1","SUSE-SU-2025:20533-1","openSUSE-SU-2025:15219-1","openSUSE-SU-2025:15257-1"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux PAM configuration","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"An unprivileged local attacker can escalate privileges to allow_active status, bypassing Polkit restrictions intended for console users.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"redhat","cpe":[{"product":"pam-config","vendor":"suse"}],"cvss":{"score":7.8,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-863","name":"Incorrect Authorization"}],"description":"A Local Privilege Escalation (LPE) vulnerability has been discovered in pam-config within Linux Pluggable Authentication Modules (PAM).
