NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream glusterfs-cli package and not the glusterfs-cli package as distributed by RHEL. See How to fix? for RHEL:7 relevant fixed versions and status.

The Gluster file system through version 4.1.4 is vulnerable to abuse of the 'features/index' translator. A remote attacker with access to mount volumes could exploit this via the 'GF_XATTROP_ENTRY_IN_KEY' xattrop to create arbitrary, empty files on the target server.
