✅ Remediation

For OpenShift Container Platform 4.20 see the following documentation, which will be updated shortly for this release, for important instructions on how to upgrade your cluster and fully apply this asynchronous errata update: https://docs.redhat.com/en/documentation/openshift_container_platform/4.20/html/release_notes/ You may download the oc tool and use it to inspect release image metadata for x86_64, s390x, ppc64le, and aarch64 architectures. The image digests may be found at https://quay.io/repository/openshift-release-dev/ocp-release?tab=tags. The sha values for the release are as follows: (For x86_64 architecture) The image digest is sha256:437514ee0f768d8116c19f527be1eaa239ce26ccef6abbf0cb7ebf0056ec6e15 (For s390x architecture) The image digest is sha256:58cdbc266aef95d5d972872cf49932e345b1c44165310f3a7cc237cea7437dca (For ppc64le architecture) The image digest is sha256:373a67d9fb8e142c5e0b8600d49a1b80306e9a934dbefa8c584476c7aa8ef5d5 (For aarch64 architecture) The image digest is sha256:383135875bd9c114e64aba80fc3563716da12f36e5448107060d8b47a6f7e8bd All OpenShift Container Platform 4.20 users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages and images when they are available in the appropriate release channel. To check for available updates, use the OpenShift CLI (oc) or web console. Instructions for upgrading a cluster are available at https://docs.redhat.com/en/documentation/openshift_container_platform/4.20/html-single/updating_clusters/index#updating-cluster-cli. Workaround: Mitigation for this issue is either not available or the currently available options do not meet the Red Hat Product Security criteria comprising ease of use and deployment, applicability to widespread installation base, or stability. Workaround: Mitigation for this issue is either not available or the currently available options do not meet the Red Hat Product Security criteria comprising ease of use and deployment, applicability to widespread installation base or stability. Workaround: Upgrade to a fixed golang.org/x/net release that includes the idna correction, via updated golang or dependent package rebuilds. Workaround: The vulnerability requires a code fix to implement a complete privilege drop (setting all three UID/GID fields, clearing all Linux capability sets, and setting `PR_SET_NO_NEW_PRIVS`) before executing any fingerprint binary. Workaround: See the security bulletin for a detailed mitigation procedure.
