{"id":"SUSE-SU-2022:3709-1","summary":"Security update for multipath-tools","details":"This update for multipath-tools fixes the following issues:\n\n- CVE-2022-41973: Fixed a symlink attack in multipathd. (bsc#1202739)\n- CVE-2022-41974: Fixed an authorization bypass issue in multipathd. (bsc#1202739)\n- Avoid linking to libreadline to avoid licensing issue (bsc#1202616)\n- multipathd: add 'force_reconfigure' option (bsc#1189551)\n  The command 'multipathd -kreconfigure' changes behavior: instead\n  of reloading every map, it checks map configuration and reloads\n  only modified maps. This speeds up the reconfigure operation \n  substantially. The old behavior can be reinstated by setting\n   'force_reconfigure yes' in multipath.conf (not recommended).\n   Note: 'force_reconfigure yes' is not supported in SLE15-SP4 and\n   beyond, which provide the command 'multipathd -k'reconfigure all''\n- multipathd: avoid stalled clients during reconfigure (bsc#1189551)\n- multipathd: handle client disconnect correctly (bsc#1189551)\n","modified":"2026-03-11T07:21:17.359490Z","published":"2022-10-24T14:23:06Z","related":["CVE-2022-41973","CVE-2022-41974"],"upstream":["CVE-2022-41973","CVE-2022-41974"],"references":[{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://www.suse.com/support/update/announcement/2022/suse-su-20223709-1/"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://bugzilla.suse.com/1189551"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://bugzilla.suse.com/1202616"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://bugzilla.suse.com/1202739"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://www.suse.com/security/cve/CVE-2022-41973"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://www.suse.com/security/cve/CVE-2022-41974"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"multipath-tools","ecosystem":"SUSE:Linux
