It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-73585 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Redhat Enterprise Linux. 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-2026-73585/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-73585/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-73585","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-73585/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-73585","record":{"aliases":["AZL-96609","GHSA-9424-vj6g-h5m7","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-73585"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["privilege_escalation","denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux system utilities","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Local attackers can exploit insecure temporary files in sblim-cmpi-base scripts to overwrite root-owned files via symlink attacks, potentially escalating privileges or disrupting services.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"redhat","cpe":[{"product":"enterprise_linux","vendor":"redhat"}],"cvss":{"score":6.3,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-377","name":"DEPRECATED: Insecure Temporary File"}],"description":"A flaw was found in sblim-cmpi-base. Insecure temporary file creation in the provider registration scripts allows a local unprivileged user to perform a symlink attack. By creating a symlink in a world-writable directory, an attacker can redirect privileged writes to an arbitrary file during script execution in a privileged context. This can lead to the overwrite of root-owned files, potentially disrupting system services or operation. Exploitation is conditional on the script running with elevated privileges and may be mitigated by sticky-directory symlink protections.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":false,"headline":"Path traversal in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10","id":"CVE-2026-73585","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"redhat:enterprise_linux","products":["redhat:enterprise_linux"],"type":"path_traversal","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"Auth bypass in Secure Connect Gateway (SCG) Policy Manager","id":"CVE-2026-73586"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Sblim-sfcb: sblim-sfcb: privileged file corruption and denial of service via insecure temporary file handling","id":"CVE-2026-73584"},"products":["Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10","Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6","Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7","Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8","Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9"],"published":"2026-08-13","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Red Hat JBoss RichFaces Framework Expression Language Injection","id":"CVE-2018-14667","kev_date_added":"2023-09-28","published":"2018-11-06"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Missing fixes for CVE-2021-40438 and CVE-2021-26691 in the versions of httpd, as shipped in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.5.0, causes a securit","id":"CVE-2021-20325","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-02-18"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in libwebp","id":"CVE-2018-25011","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-05-21"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Other in libwebp","id":"CVE-2018-25014","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-05-21"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Supply chain in redhat-upgrade-tool","id":"CVE-2014-3585","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-11-22"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Squid: request/response smuggling in http/1.1 and icap","id":"CVE-2023-46846","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-11-03"},{"cvss_score":9.1,"headline":"Memory corruption in libwebp","id":"CVE-2018-25009","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-05-21"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-08-14","vendors":["Red Hat"]},"summary":"Local attackers can exploit insecure temporary files in sblim-cmpi-base scripts to overwrite root-owned files via symlink attacks, potentially escalating privileges or disrupting services.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-73585/"}
