- Description:
Red Hat Update Infrastructure (RHUI) offers a highly scalable, highly
redundant framework that enables you to manage repositories and content. It
also enables cloud providers to deliver content and updates to Red Hat
Enterprise Linux (RHEL) instances.
Security Fix(es):
Django: Potential denial-of-service vulnerability due to large
Accept-Language header values (CVE-2023-23969)Django: Potential denial-of-service vulnerability when uploading multiple
files (CVE-2023-24580)Future: Remote attackers can cause denial-of-service using crafted
Set-Cookie header from a malicious web server (CVE-2022-40899)
This RHUI update fixes the following bugs:
Previously, when the
rhui-services-restartcommand was run, it
restarted only thosepulpcore-workerservices that were already running
and ignored services that were not running. With this update, the
rhui-services-restartcommand restarts allpulpcore-workerservices
irrespective of their status.Previously, the
rhui-manager statuscommand returned an incorrect exit
status when there was a problem. With this update, the issue has been fixed
and the command now returns the correct exit status. (BZ#2174633)Previously,
rhui-installerignored the--rhua-mount-optionsparameter
and only used the read-write (rw) mount option to set up RHUI remote
share. With this update,rhui-installeruses the--rhua-mount-options
parameter. However,rhui-installerstill uses the read-write (rw)
option by default. (BZ#2174316)Previously, when you ran
rhui-installer, it rewrote the
/etc/rhui/rhui-tools.conffile, resetting all container-related settings.
With this update, the command saves the container-related settings from the
/etc/rhui/rhui-tools.conffile and restores them after the file is
rewritten.
This RHUI update introduces the following enhancements:
The
rhui-installercommand now supports the--pulp-workers _COUNT_
argument. RHUI administrators can use this argument to set up a number of
Pulp workers. (BZ#2036408)You can now configure CDS nodes to never fetch non-exported content from
the RHUA node. To configure the node, rerun therhui-installercommand
with the--fetch-missing-symlinks Falseargument, and then apply this
configuration to all CDS nodes. If you configure your CDS nodes this way,
ensure that the content has been exported before RHUI clients start
consuming it. (BZ#2084950)Support for containers in RHUI is disabled by default. If you want to use
containers, you must manually enable container support by rerunning
rhui-installerwith the--container-support-enabled Trueargument, and
then applying this configuration to all CDS nodes.Transport Layer Security (TLS) 1.3 and HTTP Strict Transport Security
(HSTS) is now enabled in RHUI. This update improves overall RHUI security
and also removes unsafe ciphers from thenginxconfiguration on CDS
nodes. (BZ#1887903)You can now remove packages from custom repositories using the text user
interface (TUI) as well as the command line. For more information, see the
release notes or the product documentation.(BZ#2165444)You can now set up the Alternate Content Source (ACS) configuration in
RHUI to quickly synchronize new repositories and content by substituting
remote content with matching content that is available locally or
geographically closer to your instance of RHUI. For more information, see
the release notes or the product documentation. (BZ#2001087)You can now use a custom prefix, or no prefix at all, when naming your
RHUI repositories. You can change the prefix by rerunning the
rhui-installercommand with the--client-repo-prefix <prefix>argument.
To remove the prefix entirely, use two quotation marks (“”) as the
<prefix>parameter. For more information, see the release notes or the
product documentation.

relevant to your system have been applied.

An issue was discovered in the Multipart Request Parser in Django 3.2 before 3.2.18, 4.0 before 4.0.10, and 4.1 before 4.1.7. Passing certain inputs (e.g., an excessive number of parts) to multipart forms could result in too many open files or memory exhaustion, and provided a potential vector for a denial-of-service attack.
Ubuntu Security Notice 5868-1 - Jakob Ackermann discovered that Django incorrectly handled certain file uploads. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause Django to consume resources, leading to a denial of service.
In Django 3.2 before 3.2.17, 4.0 before 4.0.9, and 4.1 before 4.1.6, the parsed values of Accept-Language headers are cached in order to avoid repetitive parsing. This leads to a potential denial-of-service vector via excessive memory usage if the raw value of Accept-Language headers is very large.
