✅ Remediation

For OpenShift Container Platform 4.13 see the following documentation, which will be updated shortly for this release, for important instructions on how to upgrade your cluster and fully apply this asynchronous errata update: https://docs.redhat.com/en/documentation/openshift_container_platform/4.13/html/release_notes You may download the oc tool and use it to inspect release image metadata for x86_64 architecture. The image digest may be found at https://quay.io/repository/openshift-release-dev/ocp-release?tab=tags. The sha value for the release is as follows: (For x86_64 architecture) The image digest is sha256:c889dfb978becf40cea36fa5517cd6540944d49cba22aa4783aa1083b93e2470 All OpenShift Container Platform 4.13 users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages and images when they are available in the appropriate release channel. To check for available updates, use the OpenShift CLI (oc) or web console. Instructions for upgrading a cluster are available at https://docs.redhat.com/en/documentation/openshift_container_platform/4.13/html-single/updating_clusters/index#updating-cluster-within-minor. Workaround: Administrators can mitigate this issue by: Setting read-only permissions on protected files at the underlying filesystem level will prevent modifications. Configuring ```worm:grace_period = 0``` (zero or less) in smb.conf will eliminate the writable grace period (will eliminate the window in which the rename can happen), understanding that this may impact workflows requiring multi-step file creation. Workaround: Systems are not affected unless Samba Group Policy processing and certificate auto-enrollment are explicitly enabled. Administrators can reduce exposure by: Avoiding unnecessary use of certificate auto-enrollment. Ensuring your "smb.conf" does not contain a line like ```apply group policies = yes```. If , group policy is not be enabled, the vulnerable code will not run. Intercepting the HTTP request requires some control over the local network or other devices to intercept or redirect traffic. Some network administrators might assess this as a low risk on their networks. 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: Restrict unprivileged users from creating symlinks in directories that privileged processes operate on with ACL commands. Where possible, use the fs.protected_symlinks sysctl (enabled by default on RHEL 7+), which prevents symlink following in world-writable sticky directories unless the owner of the symlink matches the owner of the target file or directory. Workaround: To mitigate this vulnerability, implement input validation to sanitize untrusted key files (such as .desktop or .ini files), specifically rejecting or stripping empty values before calling g_key_file_get_locale_string_list(). Alternatively, restricting the application to only load key files from trusted sources will completely neutralize this issue. Workaround: To mitigate this vulnerability, ensure that applications only connect to trusted D-Bus servers and operate within secure, isolated networks to prevent man-in-the-middle (MitM) attacks. If feasible, configuring the D-Bus connection to strictly require the EXTERNAL authentication mechanism and disabling DBUS_COOKIE_SHA1 will completely neutralize this issue. Workaround: See the security bulletin for a detailed mitigation procedure.
