MCollective is a framework to build server orchestration or parallel job + execution systems. +

+
+ +

Two vulnerabilities have been found in MCollective:

+ +
    +
  • An untrusted search path vulnerability exists in MCollective + (CVE-2014-3248) +
  • +
  • MCollective does not properly validate server certificates + (CVE-2014-3251) +
  • +
+
+ +

A local attacker can execute arbitrary a Trojan horse shared library, + potentially resulting in arbitrary code execution and privilege + escalation. Furthermore, a local attacker may be able to establish + unauthorized MCollective connections. +

+
+ +

There is no known workaround at this time.

+
+ +

All MCollective users should upgrade to the latest version:

+ + + # emerge --sync + # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=app-admin/mcollective-2.5.3" + +
