✅ Remediation

The containers required to run Discovery can be installed through discovery-installer RPM. See the official documentation for more details. Workaround: Mitigation for this issue is either not available or the currently available options do not meet the Red Hat Product Security criteria comprising ease of use and deployment, applicability to widespread installation base or stability. Workaround: Mitigation for this issue is either not available or the currently available options do not meet the Red Hat Product Security criteria comprising ease of use and deployment, applicability to widespread installation base, or stability. Workaround: Applications that process Cryptographic Message Syntax (CMS) EnvelopedData messages should be configured to only accept input from trusted sources. Restricting network access to services that process untrusted CMS data can also reduce exposure to this Denial of Service vulnerability. Workaround: To prevent exploitation, ensure the rsync daemon is configured with `use chroot = yes`. This setting, which is the default, isolates the rsync process and prevents the symlink race condition. If `use chroot = no` is present in the rsync configuration (e.g., `/etc/rsyncd.conf`), it must be changed to `use chroot = yes`. A restart of the rsync service is required for any configuration changes to take effect. Workaround: To mitigate this issue, enforce strict validation on all uploaded PKCS#12 files to reject those containing abnormally short security keys. Additionally, enabling FIPS mode on your system can help protect your environment, as the vulnerable OpenSSL code operates entirely outside the approved FIPS cryptographic boundary. Workaround: Systems configured to operate in FIPS mode are not affected by this vulnerability. To mitigate this issue, ensure that OpenSSL is operating in FIPS mode by enabling the system-wide FIPS policy. This may have broader implications for cryptographic operations on the system and should be evaluated for compatibility with existing applications. A system reboot may be required for the changes to take effect. Workaround: To mitigate this vulnerability, apply UDP rate limiting at your network edge to throttle malicious traffic. If QUIC is not strictly required, disable the listener entirely and configure your application to use standard TLS over TCP. Additionally, enforce strict process memory limits using cgroups to prevent host-wide memory exhaustion during an attack. Workaround: To mitigate this issue, remove the NegoEx mechanism registration from the system's GSSAPI configuration if it is not required. This can typically be achieved by removing or commenting out the relevant entry in `/etc/gss/mech`. A restart of services utilizing Kerberos might be necessary for the changes to take effect, which could impact Kerberos-dependent functionality. Workaround: To mitigate this issue, ensure that the NegoEx mechanism is not registered in the `/etc/gss/mech` configuration file. Removing the corresponding entry from this file will prevent the vulnerable code path from being activated. This action may impact services that rely on the NegoEx GSS-API mechanism. A restart of affected Kerberos-dependent services may be required for the change to take effect. Workaround: To mitigate this vulnerability, avoid using the -X or --xattrs options with rsync if extended attribute handling is not essential for your operations. Disabling these options prevents the vulnerable code path from being exercised. This may impact functionality that relies on extended attributes. Workaround: To mitigate this issue, ensure that the OpenSSL QUIC server has client address validation enabled. This is the default configuration. If the `SSL_LISTENER_FLAG_NO_VALIDATE` flag is being used with the `SSL_new_listener()` call, it should be removed to prevent the vulnerability from being exploitable. Workaround: To mitigate this issue, ensure that OpenSSL CMP client applications only communicate with trusted Certificate Management Protocol (CMP) servers. If CMP client functionality is not required, consider disabling or restricting its use to reduce exposure. Workaround: To mitigate this vulnerability, applications utilizing CMS_decrypt() or PKCS7_decrypt() should ensure a recipient certificate is always provided to identify the specific RecipientInfo for decryption. This practice helps prevent the Bleichenbacher-style oracle attack by ensuring proper key identification. Workaround: Disable compression on the rsync daemon by adding `refuse options = compress` to the `rsyncd.conf` file. A restart of the rsync daemon service is required for the change to take effect and may impact transfer performance. Workaround: To mitigate this vulnerability, restrict the maximum size of incoming XML payloads. It is especially critical to limit the decompressed size if the application accepts compressed XML files. Also, consider running the application inside a container or a restricted environment to ensure that the high consumption of CPU resources does not affect the host system. Workaround: The vulnerability arises from specific application implementations using OpenSSL's AES-SIV or AES-GCM-SIV modes with custom protocols and an atypical handling of empty ciphertexts. As this scenario is not a default or commonly deployed configuration in Red Hat products, and no direct configuration or operational control exists to mitigate this specific flaw without patching, the following applies: Mitigation for this issue is either not available or the currently available options do not meet the Red Hat Product Security criteria comprising ease of use and deployment, applicability to widespread installation base, or stability.
