Backport fixes for CVE-2024-6174 and CVE-2024-11584
- cloud-init included the systemd socket unit cloud-init-hotplugd.socket with default SocketMode that
grants 0666 permissions, making it world-writable. An unprivelege user could trigger hotplug-hook commands
(CVE-2024-11584)
- When a non-x86 platform is detected, cloud-init granted root access to a hardcoded url with a local IP
address. To prevent this, cloud-init default configurations disable platform enumeration (CVE-2024-6174)
Note that the fix for CVE-2024-6174 includes a change that may break non-x86 OpenStack Nova users.
Affected users may wish to use ConfigDrive as a workaround
Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Fedora security advisory.
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
