Gustavo Grieco discovered that unzip incorrectly handled certain malformed archives. If a user or automated system were tricked into processing a specially crafted zip archive, an attacker could possibly cause unzip to hang, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2015-7697)

The Cloud Foundry project released a BOSH stemcell version 3130 that has the patched version of the Linux kernel. A new Cloud Foundry rootfs was also released, cflinuxfs2 v.1.17.0, that has the patches.

Pivotal is releasing an updated version of Pivotal Cloud Foundry Suite which references this patched BOSH stemcell.

  • All versions of Cloud Foundry cflinuxfs2 prior to v.1.17.0.
  • Pivotal Cloud Foundry Elastic Runtime pre-1.6.4 versions.
  • Pivotal Ops Manager pre-1.5.9 versions and versions 1.6.0 and 1.6.1.
  • Pivotal Redis pre-1.4.12 versions.
  • Pivotal GemFire SSC pre-1.1.0.2 versions and versions 1.1.1.0 and 1.1.2.0.

  • Pivotal MySQL pre-1.6.3.2 versions and versions 1.7.0.0 and 1.7.0.1.

Mitigation

Users of affected versions should apply the following mitigation:

  • The Cloud Foundry project recommends that Cloud Foundry deployments run with BOSH stemcells 3130 or later versions and cflinuxfs2 v.1.17.0 or later versions.
  • Pivotal recommends that customers upgrade to the 1.6.4 or later versions of Pivotal Cloud Foundry Elastic Runtime.
  • 1.5.9 or later 1.5.x versions or the 1.6.2 or later 1.6.x versions of Pivotal Ops Manager.
  • The 1.1.3.0 or later versions of Pivotal GemFire SSC, or version 1.1.0.2.
  • 1.4.12 or later versions of Pivotal Redis.
  • 1.4.8 or later versions of RabbitMQ.
  • The 1.4.6 or later 1.4.x versions or the 1.5.2 or later 1.5.x versions of Pivotal Ops Metrics.
