Insight
The rgmanager package contains the Red Hat Resource Group Manager, which provides the ability to create and manage high-availability server applications in the event of system downtime.
It was discovered that certain resource agent scripts set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable to an insecure value containing empty path elements. A local user able to trick a user running those scripts to run them while working from an attacker-writable directory could use this flaw to escalate their privileges via a specially-crafted dynamic library.
(CVE-2010-3389)
Red Hat would like to thank Raphael Geissert for reporting this issue.
This update also fixes the following bugs:
* The failover domain "
nofailback"
option was not honored if a service was
in the "
starting"
state. This bug has been fixed. (BZ#669440)
* PID files with white spaces in the file name are now handled correctly.
(BZ#632704)
* The /usr/sbin/rhev-check.sh script can now be used from within Cron.
(BZ#634225)
* The clustat utility now reports the correct version. (BZ#654160)
* The oracledb.sh agent now attempts to try the " shutdown immediate"
command instead of using the "
shutdown abort"
command. (BZ#633992)
* The SAPInstance and SAPDatabase scripts now use proper directory name quoting so they no longer collide with directory names like " /u"
.
(BZ#637154)
* The clufindhostname utility now returns the correct value in all cases.
(BZ#592613)
* The nfsclient resource agent now handles paths with trailing slashes correctly. (BZ#592624)
* The last owner of a service is now reported correctly after a failover.
(BZ#610483)
* The /usr/share/cluster/fs.sh script no longer runs the " quotaoff"
command
if quotas were not configured. (BZ#637678)
* The "
listen"
line in the /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf file generated by the Apache resource agent is now correct. (BZ#675739)
* The tomcat-5 resource agent no longer generates incorrect configurations.
(BZ#637802)
* The time required to stop an NFS resource when the server is unavailable has been reduced. (BZ#678494)
* When using exclusive prioritization, a higher priority service now preempts a lower priority service after status check failures. (BZ#680256)
* The postgres-8 resource agent now correctly detects failed start operations. (BZ#663827)
* The handling of reference counts passed by rgmanager to resource agents now works properly, as expected. (BZ#692771)
