CVE-2025-9912

Local superuser command execution

Published Jun 16, 2026 · Updated Jun 16, 2026

Local privilege escalation in Nokia SR Linux before 23.10.8, 24.10.6, and 25.7.2 allows authenticated users to execute commands as superuser. Neither Nokia's advisory nor the CNA record identifies the affected component or the operation that improperly elevates privileges. Exploitation requires local access and high privileges, and successful use grants superuser command execution.
