security advisoryprivilege escalationbug fixRed Hat 7: RHSA-2016:2059-01 Important: mariadb-galera Privilege Escalation
An update for mariadb-galera is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform 5.0 (Icehouse) for RHEL 7. Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security impact of Important. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score,. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 ==================================================================== Red Hat Security Advisory Synopsis: Important: mariadb-galera security and bug fix update Advisory ID: RHSA-2016:2059-01 Product: Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform Advisory URL: https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2016:2059.html Issue date: 2016-10-13 CVE Names: CVE-2016-6662 ==================================================================== 1. Summary: An update for mariadb-galera is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform 5.0 (Icehouse) for RHEL 7. Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security impact of Important. 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 Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform 5.0 (Icehouse) for RHEL 7 - x86_64 3. Description: MariaDB is a multi-user, multi-threaded SQL database server that is binary compatible with MySQL. Galera is a synchronous multi-master cluster for MariaDB. Security Fix(es): * It was discovered that the MySQL logging functionality allowed writing to MySQL configuration files. An administrative database user, or a database user with FILE privileges, could possibly use this flaw to run arbitrary commands with root privileges on the system running the database server. (CVE-2016-6662) Bug Fix(es): * Because Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.3 changed the return format of the "systemctl is-enabled" command as consumed by shell scripts, the mariadb-galera RPM package, upon installation, erroneouslydetected that the MariaDB service was enabled when it was not. As a result, the Red Hat OpenStack Platform installer, which then tried to run mariadb-galera using Pacemaker and not systemd, failed to start Galera. With this update, mariadb-galera's RPM installation scripts now use a different systemctl command, correctly detecting the default MariaDB as disabled, and the installer can succeed. (BZ#1376908) * Previously, both the mariadb-server and mariadb-galera-server packages shipped the client-facing libraries, dialog.so and mysql_clear_password.so. As a result, the mariadb-galera-server package would fail to install because of package conflicts. With this update, these libraries have been moved from mariadb-galera-server to mariadb-libs, and the mariadb-galera-server package installs successfully. (BZ#1376902) 4. 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 After installing this update, the MariaDB server daemon (mysqld) will be restarted automatically. 5. Bugs fixed (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/): 1375198 - CVE-2016-6662 mysql: general_log can write to configuration files, leading to privilege escalation 1376902 - RHEL 7.3 upgrades fails on upgrade because of mariadb-libs package conflict. 1376908 - mysqld service prevents haproxy to get started and deployment fails 6.
