Name : cloud-init
Product : Fedora 41
Version : 24.2
Release : 4.fc41
URL : https://github.com/canonical/cloud-init
Summary : Cloud instance init scripts
Description :
Cloud-init is a set of init scripts for cloud instances. Cloud instances
need special scripts to run during initialization to retrieve and install
ssh keys and to let the user run various scripts.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

Backport fixes for CVE-2024-6174 and CVE-2024-11584
cloud-init included the systemd socket unit cloud-init-hotplugd.socket with
default SocketMode that grants 0666 permissions, making it world-writable. An
unprivelege user could trigger hotplug-hook commands (CVE-2024-11584)
When a non-x86 platform is detected, cloud-init granted root access to a
hardcoded url with a local IP address. To prevent this, cloud-init default
configurations disable platform enumeration (CVE-2024-6174)
Note that the fix for CVE-2024-6174 includes a change that may break non-x86
OpenStack Nova users. Affected users may wish to use ConfigDrive as a workaround
