NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream ceph package and not the ceph package as distributed by Ubuntu.

RADOS Gateway in Ceph 12.1.0 through 12.2.1 allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (assertion failure and application exit) by leveraging "full" (not necessarily admin) privileges to post an invalid profile to the admin API, related to rgw/rgw_iam_policy.cc, rgw/rgw_basic_types.h, and rgw/rgw_iam_types.h.
