Red Hat Security Advisory 2019-3255-01

Red Hat Security Advisory 2019-3255-01
Posted Oct 30, 2019
Authored by Red Hat | Site access.redhat.com

Red Hat Security Advisory 2019-3255-01 - Heketi provides a RESTful management interface that can be used to manage the life cycle of GlusterFS volumes. With Heketi, cloud services like OpenStack Manila, Kubernetes, and OpenShift can dynamically provision GlusterFS volumes with any of the supported durability types. Heketi will automatically determine the location for bricks across the cluster, making sure to place bricks and its replicas across different failure domains. Heketi also supports any number of GlusterFS clusters, allowing cloud services to provide network file storage without being limited to a single GlusterFS cluster.

Red Hat Security Advisory

Synopsis: Moderate: heketi security, bug fix, and enhancement update
Advisory ID: RHSA-2019:3255-01
Product: Red Hat Gluster Storage
Advisory URL: https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2019:3255
Issue date: 2019-10-30
CVE Names: CVE-2019-3899
=====================================================================

1. Summary:

Updated heketi packages that fix one security issue, multiple bugs, and
adds various enhancements is now available for OpenShift Container Storage
3.11 Batch 4 Update.

Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security impact
of Moderate. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which
gives a detailed severity rating, is available for each vulnerability from
the CVE link(s) in the References section.

2. Relevant releases/architectures:

Red Hat Gluster Storage Server 3.5 on RHEL-7 - x86_64
Red Hat Storage Native Client for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 - x86_64

3. Description:

Heketi provides a RESTful management interface that can be used to manage
the life cycle of GlusterFS volumes. With Heketi, cloud services like
OpenStack Manila, Kubernetes, and OpenShift can dynamically provision
GlusterFS volumes with any of the supported durability types. Heketi will
automatically determine the location for bricks across the cluster, making
sure to place bricks and its replicas across different failure domains.
Heketi also supports any number of GlusterFS clusters, allowing cloud
services to provide network file storage without being limited to a single
GlusterFS cluster.

The following packages have been upgraded to a later upstream version:
heketi (9.0.0). (BZ#1710080)

Security Fix(es):

* heketi: heketi can be installed using insecure defaults (CVE-2019-3899)

For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS
score, acknowledgments, and other related information, refer to the CVE
page(s) listed in the References section.

Bug Fix(es):

* Previously, it was easy to inadvertently set Heketi up in an unsecured
way which increased the risk of unauthorized users to make changes to the
storage managed by Heketi. The default settings have changed to require
users to configure authentication and to make disabling authentication
unintentionally more difficult. (BZ#1701838)

* Previously, when Heketi executed commands within OpenShift/Kubernetes
pods, the commands were executed without a timeout specified. Hence, some
commands never returned which differed from the SSH executor which always
executes commands with a timeout. With this update, the commands that are
executed in the gluster containers have a timeout specified. The timeout
values are the same regardless of what connection type is used.
(BZ#1636912)

* Previously, if Heketi managed multiple clusters and it failed to create
volumes on any of the clusters it would return a generic "No space" error
message. With this update, error messages produced when heketi manages
multiple gluster clusters have been improved. Heketi now displays specific
errors for when the cluster has no nodes or none of the nodes have usable
devices and also reports on each cluster's error by prefixing cluster
errors with the cluster ID. (BZ#1577803)

* Previously, if operation cleanup was requested from the server
simultaneously, the server would try to initiate cleanup for the same
operation twice. This triggered panic in the server. With this update, the
server no longer panics if two operation cleanups are requested at the same
time. (BZ#1702162)

Enhancement(s):

* When a node is removed or added to a gluster trusted storage pool using
heketi, the existing endpoints do not get updated automatically. With this
update, to update the endpoints after node addition/removal, users can now
execute the following commands:
1. heketi-cli volume endpoint patch <volume-id>
2. oc patch ep <heketi-db-endpoint-name> -p <changes> (BZ#1660681)

* With this update, Heketi tracks additional metadata associated with disk
devices even if the path of the device changes. The outputs of some
commands have been updated to reflect the additional metadata. (BZ#1609553)

Users of Heketi are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which
adds these enhancements and fix these bugs.

4. Solution:

described in this advisory, refer to:

5. Bugs fixed (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/):

1660681 - Heketi does not list storage endpoint of newly added node
1701091 - CVE-2019-3899 heketi: heketi can be installed using insecure defaults

1710080 - [RFE] Rebase Heketi to version v9.0 upstream source
1710996 - Reset default limit for maximum number of volumes in Heketi to upstream value of 1000
1725798 - Deleted device cannot be added back to the topology after device path change
