“GHOST” Vulnerability on EMC products

ghost boo

No, not that type of ghost.

 

Just a quick post to collate some info regarding EMC equipment and a recently discovered vulnerability in certain libraries present in some versions of Linux, which are utilized in a number of EMC systems.

As usual, this is a buffer-overflow type vulnerability, this time in the glibc 2.2 library that, when exploited, gains attackers the ability to execute arbitrary code to the gethostbyname and gethostbyname2 functions…. “GHOST”!

Full details are available here

This isn’t as easy to exploit as Heartbleed, and similarly these systems are generally not interfaced with networks that allow them to be exposed. That being said, it’s part of being a good admin to be aware and alert of the risks and to patch and remediate where appropriate.

EMC’s summary page is listed here.  (support login required).

From that list, the usual suspects are technically vulnerable; VMAX, VNX*, VNX2, RecoverPoint, ScaleIO, Unisphere Central, ViIPR **, XtremIO and the Powerpath Virtual Appliance. (There’s more, but this is my ‘watch’ list.

Presently, there is no remediation process or fix available, so sit tight, assess the risk  and action alternatively if necessary while the official fixes take shape.

Watch this space.

 

 * Not technically confirmed as vulnerable, but expected to be.
** Not all ViPR components
