CWE: CWE-200
Description: When LDAP authentication is enabled in Apache Druid 0.17.0, callers of Druid APIs with a valid set of LDAP credentials can bypass the credentialsValidator.userSearch filter barrier that determines if a valid LDAP user is allowed to authenticate with Druid. They are still subject to role-based authorization checks, if configured. Callers of Druid APIs can also retrieve any LDAP attribute values of users that exist on the LDAP server, so long as that information is visible to the Druid server. This information disclosure does not require the caller itself to be a valid LDAP user.
Statement: In OpenShift Container Platform (OCP) the openshift4/ose-metering-hive container ships the vulnerable version of the druid package, but the vulnerable code (which is part of the druid security extensions) is not delivered, hence OCP component is not affected by this flaw.

CVE-2020-13822 (Moderate severity, published 2020-05-31)
CVSS score: 7.7 (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:L)
CWE: CWE-190
Description: The Elliptic for Node.js allows ECDSA signature malleability via variations in encoding, leading '\0' bytes, or integer overflows. This could conceivably have a security-relevant impact if an application relied on a single canonical signature.
Statement: In both OpenShift Container Platform (OCP) and OpenShift ServiceMesh (OSSM), the grafana and prometheus containers don't use the vulnerable elliptic library for authentication (OpenShift OAuth is used) or traffic communications (OpenShift route is used). Therefore the impact for OCP and OSSM is Low.

Red Hat Quay includes nodejs-elliptic as a dependency of webpack. That dependency is only used at development time, not runtime. Therefore this vulnerability is rated low for Red Hat Quay.

CWE: CWE-502
Description: A flaw was found in jackson-databind 2.x in versions prior to 2.9.10.5. The interaction between serialization gadgets and typing is mishandled. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data confidentiality and integrity as well as system availability.
Statement: While OpenShift Container Platform's elasticsearch plugins do ship the vulnerable component, it doesn't do any of the unsafe things described in https://access.redhat.com/solutions/3279231. We may update the jackson-databind dependency in a future release.

Red Hat OpenStack Platform ships OpenDaylight, which contains the vulnerable jackson-databind. However, OpenDaylight does not expose jackson-databind in a way that would make it vulnerable, lowering the impact of the vulnerability for OpenDaylight. As such, Red Hat will not be providing a fix for OpenDaylight at this time.

The PKI module as shipped in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 and Red Hat Satellite 6 does not enable polymorphic deserialization which is a required configuration for the vulnerability to be used, lowering the impact of the vulnerability for the Product. We may update the jackson-databind dependency in a future release.

The version of jackson-databind as shipped in Red Hat Software Collections rh-maven35 is used only while building maven, thus it does not deserialize data coming from untrusted sources, lowering the impact of the vulnerability for the Product.
Mitigation: The following conditions are needed for an exploit, we recommend avoiding all if possible:
* Deserialization from sources you do not control
* enableDefaultTyping()
* @JsonTypeInfo using id.CLASS or id.MINIMAL_CLASS
* oadd.org.apache.xalan.lib.sql.JNDIConnectionPool in classpath

CWE: CWE-362
Description: A privilege escalation flaw was found in the Xorg-x11-server due to a lack of authentication for X11 clients. This flaw allows an attacker to take control of an X application by impersonating the server it is expecting to connect to.
Statement: As per upstream, exploiting this flaw is non-trivial and it requires exact timing on the behalf of the attacker. Many graphical applications exit if their connection to the X server is lost, so a typical desktop session is either impossible or difficult to exploit. There is currently no upstream patch available for this flaw.

CWE: CWE-312
Description: A flaw was found in Ceph where Ceph stores mgr module passwords in clear text. This issue can be found by searching the mgr logs for Grafana and dashboard, with passwords visible. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to confidentiality.
Statement: * Red Hat Ceph Storage 4 is affected by this flaw, with the passwords visible under sudo. Red Hat Ceph Storage 3 is not affected by this flaw, and does not log passwords by default. 

* Red Hat OpenShift Container Storage (RHOCS) 4 shipped Ceph package for the usage of RHOCS 4.2 only, that has reached End Of Life. Hence, the Ceph package is no longer used and supported with the release of RHOCS 4.3.

* Red Hat OpenStack Platform deployments use the Ceph package directly from the Ceph channel; the RHOSP package will not be updated at this time.

CVSS score: 6.3 (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:L)
CWE: CWE-200
Description: A flaw was found in kubernetes. If a potential attacker can already create or edit services and pods, then they may be able to intercept traffic from other pods (or nodes) in the cluster.
Statement: OpenShift Container Platform (OCP) includes a builtin externalIP admission plugin, which restricts the use of Service eternalIPs to those configured by a cluster-admin. In OCP4 all externalIP ranges are disabled by default. In OCP 3.11, the default range is "0.0.0.0/0", which allows all IP addresses.

The second attack vector, via patching the Status of a LoadBalancer Service, is not possible unless permission to patch service/status is granted. OCP does not grant this permission to users who are not cluster-admins.

OCP 4 is not affected by this vulnerability as it is secure by default. OCP 3.11 is affected, however the vulnerability can be by mitigated by configuring the builtin externalIP admission plugin.
Mitigation: ExternalIP addresses ranges can be configured as described below. OCP 4 is secure by default, though cluster-admins can whitelist externalIP addresses as needed. OCP 3.11 can be secured by changing `externalIPNetworkCIDR` to "0.0.0.0/32", which blocks all externalIP address values.

https://docs.openshift.com/container-platform/3.11/admin_guide/tcp_ingress_external_ports.html#service-externalip

Users can check if they have permission to patch the Status of a LoadBalancer Service with the command: `kubectl auth can-i patch service --subresource=status`. In OCP, by default only cluster-admins are granted this permission.
