How to fix?

Upgrade Debian:10 ceph to version 12.2.11+dfsg1-2.1+deb10u1 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream ceph package and not the ceph package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:10 relevant fixed versions and status.

A key length flaw was found in Red Hat Ceph Storage. An attacker can exploit the fact that the key length is incorrectly passed in an encryption algorithm to create a non random key, which is weaker and can be exploited for loss of confidentiality and integrity on encrypted disks.
