Summary
Security update for couchdb
Notes
Title of the patch
Security update for couchdb
Description of the patch
This update for couchdb to 1.7.2 fixes the following security issues:
- CVE-2018-8007: Apache CouchDB administrative users can configure the database
server via HTTP(S). Due to insufficient validation of administrator-supplied
configuration settings via the HTTP API, it was possible for a CouchDB
administrator user to escalate their privileges to that of the operating
system's user that CouchDB runs under, by bypassing the blacklist of
configuration settings that are not allowed to be modified via the HTTP API
(bsc#1100973).
- CVE-2017-12636: CouchDB administrative users can configure the database
server via HTTP(S). Some of the configuration options include paths for
operating system-level binaries that are subsequently launched by CouchDB. This
allowed an admin user in Apache CouchDB to execute arbitrary shell commands as
the CouchDB user (bsc#1068386).
