cassandra-reaper-fips may write temp files in insecure location

published 5 days ago
Summary

The cassandra-reaper-fips package uses a library that creates temporary files in the system's default folder, which can be accessed or altered by other users. This could let an attacker read or change data the program writes. Update the package to a version that uses a safe, private temporary directory or configure it to use a protected location.

What to do
  • Update cleanstart cassandra-reaper-fips to version 3.8.0-r3.
