critical Nessus Plugin ID 133171

Language:

Synopsis

The remote openSUSE host is missing a security update.

Description

This update for slurm to version 18.08.9 fixes the following issues :

Security issues fixed :

- CVE-2019-19728: Fixed a privilege escalation with srun, where --uid might have unintended side effects (bsc#1159692).

- CVE-2019-12838: Fixed SchedMD Slurm SQL Injection issue (bnc#1140709).

- CVE-2019-19727: Fixed permissions of slurmdbd.conf (bsc#1155784). Bug fixes :

- Fix ownership of /var/spool/slurm on new installations and upgrade (bsc#1158696).

- Fix %posttrans macro _res_update to cope with added newline (bsc#1153259).

- Move srun from 'slurm' to 'slurm-node': srun is required on the nodes as well so sbatch will work. 'slurm-node' is a requirement when 'slurm' is installed (bsc#1153095).

This update was imported from the SUSE:SLE-15-SP1:Update update project.

Solution

Update the affected slurm packages.
