RHBA-2017:2729 - glusterfs bug fix update

Synopsis

glusterfs bug fix update

Type/Severity

Bug Fix Advisory None

Topic

Updated glusterfs packages that fix a bug are now available for Red Hat Gluster Storage 3.2 on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.

Description

Red Hat Gluster Storage is a software only scale-out storage solution that provides flexible and affordable unstructured data storage. It unifies data storage and infrastructure, increases performance, and improves availability and manageability to meet enterprise-level storage challenges.

This advisory fixes the following bug:

  • When the replication process creates an entry as part of self-heal, it uses the iatt buffer to send the create operation. Previously, entries were created regardless of iatt buffer validity. This resulted in an empty file with GFID xattr of all zeroes being created when an invalid iatt buffer was sent. Checks are now included to ensure that iatt buffer content is valid before creating the entry in this situation. (BZ# 1484650)

All users of Red Hat Gluster Storage are advised to upgrade to these updated packages.
