CVE-2018-10929 [MEDIUM] GlusterFS vulnerabilities
Title: GlusterFS vulnerabilities
Summary: Several security issues were fixed in GlusterFS.
It was discovered that GlusterFS incorrectly handled network requests. An
attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service. This issue
only affected Ubuntu 14.04 ESM. (CVE-2014-3619)
It was discovered that GlusterFS incorrectly handled user permissions. An
authenticated attacker could possibly use this to add himself to a trusted
storage pool and perform privileged operations on volumes. This issue only
affected Ubuntu 16.04 ESM and Ubuntu 18.04 ESM. (CVE-2018-10841)
It was discovered that GlusterFS incorrectly handled mounting gluster
volumes. An attacker could possibly use this issue to also mount shared
gluster volumes and escalate privileges through malicious cronjobs. This

CVE-2018-14654 [MEDIUM] CWE-22 glusterfs: "features/index" translator can create arbitrary, empty files
glusterfs: "features/index" translator can create arbitrary, empty files
The Gluster file system through version 4.1.4 is vulnerable to abuse of the 'features/index' translator. A remote attacker with access to mount volumes could exploit this via the 'GF_XATTROP_ENTRY_IN_KEY' xattrop to create arbitrary, empty files on the target server.
A flaw was found in the way glusterfs server handles client requests. A remote, authenticated attacker could set arbitrary values for the GF_XATTROP_ENTRY_IN_KEY and GF_XATTROP_ENTRY_OUT_KEY during xattrop file operation resulting in creation and deletion of arbitrary files on glusterfs server node.
Statement: This issue did not affect Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 and 7 as the flaw is present in glusterfs-server, which is not shipped there.
