Synopsis

The remote Ubuntu host is missing a security update.

Description

The remote Ubuntu 20.04 LTS / 22.04 LTS / 23.04 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the USN-6073-9 advisory.

 USN-6073-4 fixed a vulnerability in os-brick. Unfortunately the update introduced a regression with detaching volumes. The security fix has been removed pending further investigation.

 We apologize for the inconvenience.

 Original advisory details:

 Jan Wasilewski and Gorka Eguileor discovered that os-brick incorrectly

 handled deleted volume attachments. An authenticated user or attacker could

 possibly use this issue to gain access to sensitive information.

 This update may require configuration changes to be completely effective,

 please see the upstream advisory for more information:

 https://security.openstack.org/ossa/OSSA-2023-003.html

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Update the affected os-brick-common and / or python3-os-brick packages.
