The release candidate for Pulp 2.8.3 is now available. Pulp has been updated, along with the Puppet (pulp_puppet) and RPM (pulp_rpm) plugins.
This release also includes candidatess for OSTree plugin (pulp_ostree) version 1.1.1, the Docker plugin (pulp_docker) version 2.0.1, and the Python plugin (pulp_python) version 1.1.1. The release is available in the pulp beta repository for 2.8: https://repos.fedorapeople.org/repos/pulp/pulp/beta/2.8/ Migrations will need to be run for this release. See the Upgrade Instructions below for more details. Security Issues Addressed ========================= CVE-2016-3111 (Low Impact): pulp.spec generates its RSA keys for message signing insecurely https://pulp.plan.io/issues/1837 CVE-2016-3112 (Moderate Impact): Pulp consumer private keys are world-readable https://pulp.plan.io/issues/1834 CVE-2016-3107 (Moderate Impact): Node certificate containing private key stored in world-readable file https://pulp.plan.io/issues/1833 CVE-2016-3108 (Moderate Impact): Insecure temporary file used when generating certificate for Pulp Nodes https://pulp.plan.io/issues/1830 CVE-2016-3106 (Low Impact): Insecure creation of temporary directory when generating new CA key https://pulp.plan.io/issues/1827 Additionally, CVE-2013-7450 was announced during this release cycle, even though it was fixed in Pulp 2.3.0. Users who have upgraded from Pulp < 2.3.0 may still be vulnerable, action may be required (see below). https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1003326 See the upgrade instructions below for more information on addressing these vulnerabilities. Known Issues ============ Changes to the squid package in fedora 22 are causing selinux denials to prevent squid from starting on systems using pulp's lazy download features. At this time, all other platforms appear to be working normally: only fedora 22 is affected. This issue is being tracked in our tracker.

Upgrade instructions ==================== Some of the CVEs require user interaction to remedy. Begin by upgrading to Pulp 2.8.3, and running migrations: $ sudo systemctl stop httpd pulp_workers pulp_resource_manager pulp_celerybeat goferd $ sudo yum upgrade $ sudo -u apache pulp-manage-db $ sudo systemctl start httpd pulp_workers pulp_resource_manager pulp_celerybeat goferd CVE-2016-3112 (Part I) ---------------------- The client certificate for consumers (/etc/pki/pulp/consumer/consumer-cert.pem) was installed world-readable. This issue has been fixed for new certificates issued to consumers, but upgrading to 2.8.3 does not modify the permissions of old certificates. It is recommended that users regenerate the certificates by unregistering and re-registering all consumers. However, the consumers cannot be re-registered until CVE-2013-7450, CVE-2016-3095, CVE-2016-3106, and CVE-2016-3111 have been addressed below. Thus, start by unregistering each of your consumers (we will return to this CVE later to re-register them): $ sudo pulp-consumer unregister CVE-2013-7450, CVE-2016-3095, and CVE-2016-3106 ----------------------------------------------- There are two reasons that you may wish to regenerate Pulp's internal certificate authority key and certificate. First, if your Pulp installation started off as a version lower than 2.3.0 and you are still using the default CA certificate and key that was distributed with those versions of Pulp, then you are still vulnerable to CVE-2013-7450 and it is crucial that you generate a new unique CA. Additionally, CVE-2016-3095 and CVE-2016-3106 made it possible for local attackers to read the CA key during generation (which happens during the initial installation of Pulp or any time an admin ran pulp-gen-ca-certificate). If you are concerned that a local user may have read that CA key during the brief window that it was visible it is recommended that you regenerate the key and cert. To regenerate the certificate, you should remove the old one and then you may use the provided utility: # First remove the old files so that the new files get the correct SELinux context. $ sudo rm /etc/pki/pulp/ca.* $ sudo pulp-gen-ca-certificate If you choose not to perform the CA regeneration, you may wish to apply the correct SELinux type to your existing CA files as versions of Pulp < 2.8.3 generated this file with an incorrect SELinux type. You don't need to do this if you removed the old file and regenerated it with pulp-gen-ca-certificate. You can run restorecon recursively on the /etc/pki/pulp folder to fix the SELinux label on your existing CA certificate: # You only need to do this if you didn't regenerate the CA above. $ sudo restorecon -R /etc/pki/pulp CVE-2016-3107 and CVE-2016-3108 ------------------------------- For Nodes users, the /etc/pki/pulp/nodes/node.crt file was installed world-readable. Users are recommended to remove this file and regenerate it by running pulp-gen-nodes-certificate: # It is important to remove the file so that the new file has the correct permissions. $ sudo rm /etc/pki/pulp/nodes/node.crt $ sudo pulp-gen-nodes-certificate CVE-2016-3111 ------------- Both the RSA key pair for the Pulp server and RSA key pair for each Pulp consumer was generated during installation in an insecure directory. This vulnerability allowed a local attacker to read the private key portion of the key pair. These keys are used for message authentication between the Pulp server and the Pulp consumers. If you are concerned that a local attacker was able to read these keys, you can regenerate them. We do not ship a script to perform this, but the process is straight-forward. For the Pulp server, do the following as root: $ cd /etc/pki/pulp/ $ rm rsa.key rsa_pub.key $ umask 077 $ openssl genrsa -out rsa.key <bits> # <bits> should be at least 2048 $ openssl rsa -in rsa.key -pubout > rsa_pub.key $ chgrp apache rsa.key rsa_pub.key $ chmod 640 rsa.key # Apache must be able to read the private key $ chmod 644 rsa_pub.key # The public key is world-readable as it is served via Apache The Pulp consumer key is similar: $ cd /etc/pki/pulp/consumer/ $ rm rsa.key rsa_pub.key $ umask 077 $ openssl genrsa -out rsa.key <bits> # <bits> should be at least 2048 $ openssl rsa -in rsa.key -pubout > rsa_pub.key CVE-2016-3112 (Part II) ----------------------- Now that we have regenerated the server's CA certificate, we can finish re-registering each consumer to Pulp: $ sudo pulp-consumer -u <admin-username> register --consumer-id=<consumer-id> Restart ------- Pulp services are now ready to be restarted again to pick up the new certificates. For systemd users: $ sudo systemctl restart httpd pulp_workers pulp_resource_manager pulp_celerybeat goferd Troubleshooting --------------- Regenerating the CA certificate will invalidate all client certificates that were issued by the old CA. All users will need to login to Pulp again to obtain a new client certificate. If you forget a step, you may see one of the following error messages: "pulp.server.managers.auth.authentication:ERROR: Auth certificate with CN [admin:admin:57155b83e779896cb3d634a4] is signed by a foreign CA" (or similar) in the server log can indicate that httpd has not been restarted since the CA was replaced. "The specified user does not have permission to execute the given command" from pulp-admin can mean that the user has not logged in since the new CA was present, or that httpd has not been restarted since the certificate was replaced. More generally, this error message can also mean that the user is not authorized to perform the given action. "An error occurred attempting to contact the server. More information may be found using the -v flag." may be output by pulp-admin if you have restarted httpd but have not logged in again to get a new CA certificate. If you provide that -v flag and see "ConnectionException: (None, 'tlsv1 alert decrypt error', None)", this is likely the issue.
