Background
Ceph is a distributed network file system designed to provide excellent performance, reliability, and scalability.
Description
A vulnerability has been discovered in Ceph. Please review the CVE identifier referenced below for details.
Impact
The ceph-crash.service runs the ceph-crash Python script as root. The script is operating in the directory /var/lib/ceph/crash which is controlled by the unprivileged ceph user (ceph:ceph mode 0750). The script periodically scans for new crash directories and forwards the content via ceph crash post.
Workaround
There is no known workaround at this time.
Resolution
All Ceph users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=sys-cluster/ceph-17.2.6"
| OS | Version | Architecture | Package | Version | Filename |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Gentoo | any | all | sys-cluster/ceph | < 17.2.6 | UNKNOWN |
