An update for pacemaker is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 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.

The Pacemaker cluster resource manager is a collection of technologies working together to provide data integrity and the ability to maintain application availability in the event of a failure.

Security Fix(es) :

* An authorization flaw was found in Pacemaker, where it did not properly guard its IPC interface. An attacker with an unprivileged account on a Pacemaker node could use this flaw to, for example, force the Local Resource Manager daemon to execute a script as root and thereby gain root access on the machine. (CVE-2016-7035)

This issue was discovered by Jan 'poki' Pokorny (Red Hat) and Alain Moulle (ATOS/BULL).

Bug Fix(es) :

* The version of Pacemaker in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.3 incorporated an increase in the version number of the remote node protocol. Consequently, cluster nodes running Pacemaker in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.3 and remote nodes running earlier versions of Red Hat Enterprise Linux were not able to communicate with each other unless special precautions were taken. This update preserves the rolling upgrade capability. (BZ#1389023)

Security fix for CVE-2016-7035 (improper IPC guarding)

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Fedora update system website.
Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

The remote Ubuntu 14.04 LTS / 16.04 LTS host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-3462-1 advisory.

    Jan Pokorn and Alain Moulle discovered that Pacemaker incorrectly handled the IPC interface. A local     attacker could possibly use this issue to execute arbitrary code with root privileges. (CVE-2016-7035)

    Alain Moulle discovered that Pacemaker incorrectly handled authentication. A remote attacker could     possibly use this issue to shut down connections, leading to a denial of service. This issue only affected     Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. (CVE-2016-7797)

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

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

This update for pacemaker fixes the following issues :

The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-201710-08 (Pacemaker: Multiple vulnerabilities)

    Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in Pacemaker. Please       review the referenced CVE identifiers for details.
  Impact :

    A remote attacker could execute arbitrary code or a local attacker could       escalate privileges.
  Workaround :

    There is no known workaround at this time.

Security Fix(es) :

  - An authorization flaw was found in Pacemaker, where it     did not properly guard its IPC interface. An attacker     with an unprivileged account on a Pacemaker node could     use this flaw to, for example, force the Local Resource     Manager daemon to execute a script as root and thereby     gain root access on the machine. (CVE-2016-7035)

Bug Fix(es) :

  - The version of Pacemaker in Scientific Linux 7.3     incorporated an increase in the version number of the     remote node protocol. Consequently, cluster nodes     running Pacemaker in Scientific Linux 7.3 and remote     nodes running earlier versions of Scientific Linux were     not able to communicate with each other unless special     precautions were taken. This update preserves the     rolling upgrade capability.
