ceph vulnerability


A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives:

  • Ubuntu 19.04
  • Ubuntu 18.04 LTS
Summary


Ceph could be made to crash if it received specially crafted network traffic.

Software Description

  • ceph - distributed storage and file system
Details


Abhishek Lekshmanan discovered that the RADOS gateway implementation in Ceph did not handle client disconnects properly in some situations. A remote attacker could use this to cause a denial of service.
