CVE-2018-14649 – ceph-iscsi-cli: rbd-target-api service runs in debug mode allowing for remote command execution

https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2018-14649

It was found that ceph-isci-cli package as shipped by Red Hat Ceph Storage 2 and 3 is using python-werkzeug in debug shell mode. This is done by setting debug=True in file /usr/bin/rbd-target-api provided by ceph-isci-cli package. This allows unauthenticated attackers to access this debug shell and escalate privileges. Once an attacker has successfully connected to this debug shell they will be able to execute arbitrary commands remotely. These commands will run with the same privileges as of user executing the application which is using python-werkzeug with debug shell mode enabled. • http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/105434 https://access.redhat.com/articles/3623521 https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2018:2837 https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2018:2838 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=CVE-2018-14649 https://github.com/ceph/ceph-iscsi-cli/issues/120 https://github.com/ceph/ceph-iscsi-cli/pull/121/commits/c3812075e30c76a800a961e7291087d357403f6b https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2018-14649 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id= • CWE-77: Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in a Command ('Command Injection') •
