This update for slurm fixes the following issues :

  - Fix interaction with systemd: systemd expects that a     daemonizing process doesn't go away until the PID file     with it PID of the daemon has bee written (bsc#1084125).

  - Make sure systemd services get restarted only when all     packages are in a consistent state, not in the middle of     an 'update' transaction (bsc#1088693). Since the %postun     scripts that run on update are from the old package they     cannot be changed - thus we work around the restart     breakage.

  - CVE-2018-7033: Fixed security issue in     accounting_storage/mysql plugin by always escaping     strings within the slurmdbd (bsc#1085240).

This update for pdsh, slurm_18_08 fixes the following issues :

Slurm was included in the 18.08 release, as 'slurm_18_08' package. The version 18.08.9 contains all recent security fixes, including :

CVE-2019-19728: Fixed a privilege escalation with srun, where --uid might have unintended side effects (bsc#1159692).

CVE-2019-19727: Fixed permissions of slurmdbd.conf (bsc#1155784).

pdsh was updated to: Add support for an alternative SLURM version when building the slurm plugin.

Several vulnerabilities were discovered in the Simple Linux Utility for Resource Management (SLURM), a cluster resource management and job scheduling system. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems :

  - CVE-2018-7033     Incomplete sanitization of user-provided text strings     could lead to SQL injection attacks against slurmdbd.

  - CVE-2018-10995     Insecure handling of user_name and gid fields leading to     improper authentication handling.

SchedMD reports :

Several issues were discovered with incomplete sanitization of user-provided text strings, which could potentially lead to SQL injection attacks against SlurmDBD itself. Such exploits could lead to a loss of accounting data, or escalation of user privileges on the cluster.

CVE-2018-7033 An issue that could be used for SQL Injection attacks against SlurmDBD has been fixed.

For Debian 7 'Wheezy', these problems have been fixed in version 2.3.4-2+deb7u2.

We recommend that you upgrade your slurm-llnl packages.

The remote Ubuntu 16.04 ESM / 18.04 ESM / 20.04 ESM host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-4781-1 advisory.

  - The _prolog_error function in slurmd/req.c in Slurm before 15.08.13, 16.x before 16.05.7, and 17.x before     17.02.0-pre4 has a vulnerability in how the slurmd daemon informs users of a Prolog failure on a compute     node. That vulnerability could allow a user to assume control of an arbitrary file on the system. Any     exploitation of this is dependent on the user being able to cause or anticipate the failure (non-zero     return code) of a Prolog script that their job would run on. This issue affects all Slurm versions from     0.6.0 (September 2005) to present. Workarounds to prevent exploitation of this are to either disable your     Prolog script, or modify it such that it always returns 0 (success) and adjust it to set the node as     down using scontrol instead of relying on the slurmd to handle that automatically. If you do not have a     Prolog set you are unaffected by this issue. (CVE-2016-10030)

  - Insecure SPANK environment variable handling exists in SchedMD Slurm before 16.05.11, 17.x before 17.02.9,     and 17.11.x before 17.11.0rc2, allowing privilege escalation to root during Prolog or Epilog execution.
    (CVE-2017-15566)

  - SchedMD Slurm before 17.02.10 and 17.11.x before 17.11.5 allows SQL Injection attacks against SlurmDBD.
    (CVE-2018-7033)

  - SchedMD Slurm before 17.02.11 and 17.1x.x before 17.11.7 mishandles user names (aka user_name fields) and     group ids (aka gid fields). (CVE-2018-10995)

  - SchedMD Slurm before 17.11.13 and 18.x before 18.08.5 mishandles 32-bit systems. (CVE-2019-6438)

  - Slurm 19.05.x before 19.05.7 and 20.02.x before 20.02.3, in the rare case where Message Aggregation is     enabled, allows Authentication Bypass via an Alternate Path or Channel. A race condition allows a user to     launch a process as an arbitrary user. (CVE-2020-12693)

  - Slurm before 19.05.8 and 20.x before 20.02.6 has an RPC Buffer Overflow in the PMIx MPI plugin.
    (CVE-2020-27745)

  - Slurm before 19.05.8 and 20.x before 20.02.6 exposes Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor     because xauth for X11 magic cookies is affected by a race condition in a read operation on the /proc     filesystem. (CVE-2020-27746)

  - SchedMD Slurm before 20.02.7 and 20.03.x through 20.11.x before 20.11.7 allows remote code execution as     SlurmUser because use of a PrologSlurmctld or EpilogSlurmctld script leads to environment mishandling.
    (CVE-2021-31215)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.
