{"id":"SUSE-SU-2022:3710-1","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    \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\n- multipathd: avoid stalled clients during reconfigure (bsc#1189551)\n- multipathd: handle client disconnect correctly (bsc#1189551)\n- Avoid linking to libreadline to avoid licensing issue (bsc#1202616)\n- multipathd: don't switch to DAEMON_IDLE during startup (bsc#1197570)\n- multipathd: disallow changing to/from fpin marginal paths on reconfig\n- multipathd handle fpin events (bsc#1195506,jsc#PED-1448)\n- multipath: fix exit status of multipath -T (bsc#1191900)\n","modified":"2026-03-11T07:21:17.535642Z","published":"2022-10-24T14:23:32Z","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-20223710-1/"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://bugzilla.suse.com/1189551"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://bugzilla.suse.com/1191900"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://bugzilla.suse.com/1195506"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://bugzilla.suse.com/1197570"},{"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 Enterprise Module for Basesystem 15 SP3","purl":"pkg:rpm/suse/multipath-tools&distro=SUSE%20Linux%20Enterprise%20Module%20for%20Basesystem%2015%20SP3"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"0.8.5+126+suse.8ce8da5-150300.2.14.1"}]}],"ecosystem_specific":{"binaries":[{"libdmmp0_2_0":"0.8.5+126+suse.8ce8da5-150300.2.14.1","libmpath0":"0.8.5+126+suse.8ce8da5-150300.2.14.1","multipath-tools-devel":"0.8.5+126+suse.8ce8da5-150300.2.14.1","multipath-tools":"0.8.5+126+suse.8ce8da5-150300.2.14.1","kpartx":"0.8.5+126+suse.8ce8da5-150300.2.14.1","libdmmp-devel":"0.8.5+126+suse.8ce8da5-150300.2.14.1"}]},"database_specific":{"source":"https://ftp.suse.com/pub/projects/security/osv/SUSE-SU-2022:3710-1.json"}},{"package":{"name":"multipath-tools","ecosystem":"SUSE:Linux Enterprise Micro 5.1","purl":"pkg:rpm/suse/multipath-tools&distro=SUSE%20Linux%20Enterprise%20Micro%205.1"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"0.8.5+126+suse.8ce8da5-150300.2.14.1"}]}],"ecosystem_specific":{"binaries":[{"kpartx":"0.8.5+126+suse.8ce8da5-150300.2.14.1","libmpath0":"0.8.5+126+suse.8ce8da5-150300.2.14.1","multipath-tools":"0.8.5+126+suse.8ce8da5-150300.2.14.1"}]},"database_specific":{"source":"https://ftp.suse.com/pub/projects/security/osv/SUSE-SU-2022:3710-1.json"}},{"package":{"name":"multipath-tools","ecosystem":"SUSE:Linux Enterprise Micro 5.2","purl":"pkg:rpm/suse/multipath-tools&distro=SUSE%20Linux%20Enterprise%20Micro%205.2"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"0.8.5+126+suse.8ce8da5-150300.2.14.1"}]}],"ecosystem_specific":{"binaries":[{"kpartx":"0.8.5+126+suse.8ce8da5-150300.2.14.1","libmpath0":"0.8.5+126+suse.8ce8da5-150300.2.14.1","multipath-tools":"0.8.5+126+suse.8ce8da5-150300.2.14.1"}]},"database_specific":{"source":"https://ftp.suse.com/pub/projects/security/osv/SUSE-SU-2022:3710-1.json"}},{"package":{"name":"multipath-tools","ecosystem":"openSUSE:Leap Micro 5.2","purl":"pkg:rpm/opensuse/multipath-tools&distro=openSUSE%20Leap%20Micro%205.2"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"0.8.5+126+suse.8ce8da5-150300.2.14.1"}]}],"ecosystem_specific":{"binaries":[{"kpartx":"0.8.5+126+suse.8ce8da5-150300.2.14.1","libmpath0":"0.8.5+126+suse.8ce8da5-150300.2.14.1","multipath-tools":"0.8.5+126+suse.8ce8da5-150300.2.14.1"}]},"database_specific":{"source":"https://ftp.suse.com/pub/projects/security/osv/SUSE-SU-2022:3710-1.json"}},{"package":{"name":"multipath-tools","ecosystem":"openSUSE:Leap 15.3","purl":"pkg:rpm/opensuse/multipath-tools&distro=openSUSE%20Leap%2015.3"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"0.8.5+126+suse.8ce8da5-150300.2.14.1"}]}],"ecosystem_specific":{"binaries":[{"kpartx":"0.8.5+126+suse.8ce8da5-150300.2.14.1","libdmmp-devel":"0.8.5+126+suse.8ce8da5-150300.2.14.1","libdmmp0_2_0":"0.8.5+126+suse.8ce8da5-150300.2.14.1","libmpath0":"0.8.5+126+suse.8ce8da5-150300.2.14.1","multipath-tools-devel":"0.8.5+126+suse.8ce8da5-150300.2.14.1","multipath-tools":"0.8.5+126+suse.8ce8da5-150300.2.14.1"}]},"database_specific":{"source":"https://ftp.suse.com/pub/projects/security/osv/SUSE-SU-2022:3710-1.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.7.5"}
