Description Siddharth Sharma 2018-05-24 05:27:24 UTC 
A flaw was found in glusterfs which can lead to privilege escalation on 
gluster server nodes.

It was found that any gluster client authenticated via TLS could use
gluster cli with --remote-host command to add itself to gluster trusted 
pool and perform all gluster operations like peer probe itself or other 
machines, start, stop, delete volumes etc.

Statement:

Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6, 7 are not affected by this flaw as it only affects glusterfs-server package. Red Hat Virtualization Hypervisor is not impacted by this flaw, as it uses gluster in a controlled manner via vdsm.
