TITLE

GNOME GLib  Link interpretation vulnerability in

DESCRIPTION

An issue was discovered in GNOME GLib before 2.66.8. When g_file_replace() is used with G_FILE_CREATE_REPLACE_DESTINATION to replace a path that is a dangling symlink, it incorrectly also creates the target of the symlink as an empty file, which could conceivably have security relevance if the symlink is attacker-controlled. (If the path is a symlink to a file that already exists, then the contents of that file correctly remain unchanged.). GNOME Glib is a multi-platform toolkit for creating graphical user interfaces, and is the underlying core library of GTK+ and GNOME projects. The vulnerability is caused by g_file_replace and G_FILE_CREATE_REPLACE_DESTINATION incorrectly creating the target of a symbolic link as an empty file. Bugs fixed (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/): 1944888 - CVE-2021-21409 netty: Request smuggling via content-length header 2004133 - CVE-2021-37136 netty-codec: Bzip2Decoder doesn't allow setting size restrictions for decompressed data 2004135 - CVE-2021-37137 netty-codec: SnappyFrameDecoder doesn't restrict chunk length and may buffer skippable chunks in an unnecessary way 2030932 - CVE-2021-44228 log4j-core: Remote code execution in Log4j 2.x when logs contain an attacker-controlled string value 5. JIRA issues fixed (https://issues.jboss.org/): LOG-1897 - Applying cluster state is causing elasticsearch to hit an issue and become unusable LOG-1925 - [release-5.3] No datapoint for CPU on openshift-logging dashboard LOG-1962 - [release-5.3] CLO panic: runtime error: slice bounds out of range [:-1] 6. Summary: The Migration Toolkit for Containers (MTC) 1.5.4 is now available. Description: The Migration Toolkit for Containers (MTC) enables you to migrate Kubernetes resources, persistent volume data, and internal container images between OpenShift Container Platform clusters, using the MTC web console or the Kubernetes API. Description: Red Hat Openshift GitOps is a declarative way to implement continuous deployment for cloud native applications. Bugs fixed (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/): 2050826 - CVE-2022-24348 gitops: Path traversal and dereference of symlinks when passing Helm value files 5. ========================================================================== Ubuntu Security Notice USN-4764-1 March 15, 2021 glib2.0 vulnerability ========================================================================== A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives: - Ubuntu 20.10 - Ubuntu 20.04 LTS - Ubuntu 18.04 LTS - Ubuntu 16.04 LTS Summary: GLib could be made to create files if it opened a specially crafted archive. Software Description: - glib2.0: GLib library of C routines Details: It was discovered that GLib incorrectly handled certain symlinks when replacing files. If a user or automated system were tricked into extracting a specially crafted file with File Roller, a remote attacker could possibly create files outside of the intended directory. Update instructions: The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following package versions: Ubuntu 20.10: libglib2.0-0 2.66.1-2ubuntu0.2 Ubuntu 20.04 LTS: libglib2.0-0 2.64.6-1~ubuntu20.04.3 Ubuntu 18.04 LTS: libglib2.0-0 2.56.4-0ubuntu0.18.04.8 Ubuntu 16.04 LTS: libglib2.0-0 2.48.2-0ubuntu4.8 In general, a standard system update will make all the necessary changes. Summary: Red Hat OpenShift Virtualization release 4.8.3 is now available with updates to packages and images that fix several bugs and add enhancements. Description: OpenShift Virtualization is Red Hat's virtualization solution designed for Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform. Solution: For details on how to apply this update, which includes the changes described in this advisory, refer to: https://access.redhat.com/articles/11258 4.
