CVE-2018-10914
It was found that an attacker could issue a xattr request via glusterfs FUSE to cause gluster brick process to crash which will result in a remote denial of service.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (2.29%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
Description
It was found that an attacker could issue a xattr request via glusterfs FUSE to cause gluster brick process to crash which will result in a remote denial of service. If gluster multiplexing is enabled this will result in a crash of multiple bricks and gluster volumes.
