Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2018-14659 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Debian Debian Linux. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-14659/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-14659/index.md)","id":"CVE-2018-14659","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-14659/index.md","name":"CVE-2018-14659","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2018-14659","GHSA-75jx-33j6-76c5","UBUNTU-CVE-2018-14659"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"GlusterFS distributed file system","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A remote authenticated attacker can cause denial of service in GlusterFS by repeatedly setting a specific extended attribute, filling the server's runtime directory.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"redhat","cpe":[{"product":"debian_linux","vendor":"debian"},{"product":"enterprise_linux_server","vendor":"redhat"},{"product":"gluster_file_system","vendor":"redhat"},{"product":"virtualization","vendor":"redhat"},{"product":"virtualization_host","vendor":"redhat"}],"cvss":{"score":6.5,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-400","name":"Uncontrolled Resource Consumption"}],"description":"The Gluster file system through versions 4.1.4 and 3.1.2 is vulnerable to a denial of service attack via use of the 'GF_XATTR_IOSTATS_DUMP_KEY' xattr.
