| Affected Software | Affected Version | How to fix |
|---|---|---|
| redhat/gluster-block | <0.5.1 | 0.5.1 |
| redhat/heketi | <0:9.0.0-9.5.el7 | 0:9.0.0-9.5.el7 |
| redhat/gluster-block | <0:0.2.1-36.2.el7 | 0:0.2.1-36.2.el7 |
| redhat/tcmu-runner | <0:1.2.0-32.2.el7 | 0:1.2.0-32.2.el7 |
| Redhat Gluster-block | <0.5.1 |
Remedy
Manually change the log files permission to remove readable bits for others, e.g; # chmod 640 /var/log/glusterfs/gluster-block/cmd_history.log NOTE: The above mitigation only restricts access to the other local users. To avoid storing passwords to the log file, kindly update gluster-block to the fixed version.
