Detailsinfo

A vulnerability was found in Atos Eviden SMC xScale up to 1.6.5. It has been classified as problematic. Affected is an unknown part of the component HPC Configuration. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a initialization vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-665. The product does not initialize or incorrectly initializes a resource, which might leave the resource in an unexpected state when it is accessed or used. This is going to have an impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. CVE summarizes:

An issue was discovered in Atos Eviden SMC xScale before 1.6.6. During initialization of nodes, some configuration parameters are retrieved from management nodes. These parameters embed credentials whose integrity and confidentiality may be important to the security of the HPC configuration. Because these parameters are needed for initialization, there is no available mechanism to ensure access control on the management node, and a mitigation measure is normally put in place to prevent access to unprivileged users. It was discovered that this mitigation measure does not survive a reboot of diskful nodes. (Diskless nodes are not at risk.) The mistake lies in the cloudinit configuration: the iptables configuration should have been in the bootcmd instead of the runcmd section.

The advisory is available at support.bull.com. This vulnerability is traded as CVE-2024-42018 since 07/27/2024. The technical details are unknown and an exploit is not available.

Upgrading to version 1.6.6 eliminates this vulnerability.
