Security Bulletin
This security bulletin contains information about 3 vulnerabilities.
1) Information disclosure
EUVDB-ID: #VU17098
Risk: Low
CVSSv3.1: 3.8 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]
CVE-ID: CVE-2018-14662
CWE-ID:
CWE-200 - Information exposure
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote authenticated attacker to obtain potentially sensitive information.
The vulnerability exists due to information exposure. A remote attacker read only permissions can steal dm-crypt encryption keys used in ceph disk encryption.
MitigationUpdate the affected packages.
Opensuse: 42.3

Q & A
Can this vulnerability be exploited remotely?
Yes. This vulnerability can be exploited by a remote authenticated user via the Internet.
Is there known malware, which exploits this vulnerability?
No. We are not aware of malware exploiting this vulnerability.
2) Memory corruption
EUVDB-ID: #VU17097
Risk: Low
CVSSv3.1: 5.7 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]
CVE-ID: CVE-2018-16846
CWE-ID:
CWE-119 - Memory corruption
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote authenticated attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists in the RADOS Gateway (RGW) code base due to boundary error in the ListBucket max-keys function during bucket listing operations. A remote attacker with Ceph RGW user permissions can trigger memory corruption and perform a denial of service attack against object maps (OMAPs) holding bucket indexes.
MitigationUpdate the affected packages.
Opensuse: 42.3

No. We are not aware of malware exploiting this vulnerability.
3) Memory leak
EUVDB-ID: #VU17318
Risk: Low
CVSSv3.1: 2.9 [CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]
CVE-ID: CVE-2018-16889
CWE-ID:
CWE-401 - Missing release of memory after effective lifetime
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a local attacker to obtain potentially sensitive information on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due memory leak in improper sanitization of encryption keys in debug logging output for v4 authentication. A local attacker can trigger memory leak and gain access to plaintext encryption key information in log files.
MitigationUpdate the affected packages.
Opensuse: 42.3
