Joyent Engineers are aware of the Venom (CVE-2015-3456) security vulnerability in the virtual floppy drive code used by many computer virtualization platforms. This vulnerability may allow an attacker to escape from the confines of an affected virtual machine (VM) guest and potentially obtain code-execution access to the host. Although the flaw exists in our KVM/QEMU in the Joyent software (SmartDataCenter and the Joyent Public Cloud), our architecture runs QEMU inside of an additional secure container with almost no privileges.

The following sections describe the scope of several recently-announced Open SSL Vulnerabilities. We have included actions being taken by Joyent, and actions recommended for customers to take. CVEs specific to OpenSSL version 1.0.2 Joyent has never shipped any versions of OpenSSL version 1.0.2 to customers, either in pkgsrc or as part of SmartDataCenter (SDC). If we do ship 1.0.2 versions in the future, they will be those versions known to contain the recent security fixes.

This notice is to advise Joyent Public Cloud and Smart Data Center customers of the recently identified glibc Linux security issue CVE-2015-0235 (GHOST). This vulnerability can be triggered by the gethostbyname functions, impacting many systems built on Linux. How can you determine whether you are vulnerable? You can scan for this vulnerability using the Qualys Vulnerability Management Cloud Solution as QID 123191. If you think you may be affected, patches are available from all of the Linux vendors starting today.

This notice is to advise Joyent Public Cloud and Smart Data Center customers of the recently identified Kerberos Checksum Vulnerability (CVE-2014-6324) for anyone using Microsoft Windows Server 2003 SP2, Windows Vista SP2, Windows Server 2008 SP2 and R2 SP1, Windows 7 SP1, Windows 8, Windows 8.1, and Windows Server 2012 Gold and R2. If you are running a Windows VM, your environment may allow remote authenticated domain users to obtain domain administrator privileges via a forged signature in a ticket.

This notice is to advise all Joyent Public Cloud (JPC) and SmartDataCenter (SDC) customers of the recently-identified bash security vulnerability CVE-2014-6271 (http://seclists.org/oss-sec/2014/q3/649) and the follow-on CVE-2014-7169 (https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2014-7169), collectively known as Shellshock. Note that CVE-2014-7169 has arisen due to incomplete fixes created for the CVE-2014-6271 vulnerability. (These fixes are created by the upstream maintainers of bash, not by Joyent.) AT THIS TIME, JOYENT has patched the platform bash addressing CVE-2014-6271 as well as CVE-2014-7169 in the Joyent Public Cloud.

We are posting this information as a follow up to prior notices on the Heartbleed bug to ensure customers have reviewed the suggested steps to identify and remediate any vulnerabilities. Heartbleed is a security vulnerability in the OpenSSL encryption software, which is used by a large portion of the secured websites/systems on the Internet, and may also be used by you in your web sites, and/or applications hosted on the Joyent Cloud platform.
