Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
It was discovered that an update for PCS package in RHBA-2023:2151 erratum released as part of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9.2 failed to include the fix for the Webpack issue CVE-2023-28154 (for PCS package), which was previously addressed in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9.1 via erratum RHSA-2023:1591. The CVE-2023-2319 was assigned to that Red Hat specific security regression in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9.2.

dbcve analysis · moderate confidence

This is a Red Hat-specific security regression in RHEL 9.2. The PCS package update (RHBA-2023:2151) failed to include the previously available fix for CVE-2023-28154 (a Webpack vulnerability), creating a regression where the critical vulnerability reintroduced itself in the 9.2 release despite having been fixed in RHEL 9.1 via RHSA-2023:1591.

MitigationApply the corrected PCS package update for RHEL 9.2 that includes the fix for CVE-2023-28154. Organizations should ensure they are on the latest errata that properly include the Webpack vulnerability fix.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Verify PCS package is installed
    Run: rpm -qa | grep -i pcs
    Affected if The pcs package is not installed, then this CVE does not apply. If installed, continue to next step.
  2. Check installed PCS version
    Run: rpm -q --queryformat '%{VERSION}-%{RELEASE}' pcs
    Affected if Version matches 0.11.4-6.el9 or falls within the affected RHEL 9.0/9.2 High Availability ranges, indicating the regression is present.
  3. Confirm Webpack vulnerability status
    Run: rpm -q --changelog pcs | grep -i 'CVE-2023-28154\|webpack'
    Affected if No output returned means the CVE-2023-28154 fix is NOT present (the regression applies). If the changelog shows the fix for CVE-2023-28154, the system is protected.
  4. Alternative: Check for vulnerable Webpack files
    Locate webpack JavaScript files under /usr/lib/pcs/drf/ or /usr/share/pcs/drf/ and check their content for known vulnerable patterns (的具体内容需参照CVE-2023-28154)
    Affected if Vulnerable webpack files exist without the security fix applied.

If PCS version 0.11.4-6.el9 is installed on RHEL 9.2 and the changelog does not show CVE-2023-28154 as fixed, the system is affected by this regression.

Mitigation

Apply the corrected PCS package update for RHEL 9.2 that includes the fix for CVE-2023-28154. Organizations should ensure they are on the latest errata that properly include the Webpack vulnerability fix.

Recommended fix Moderate confidence

Latest available PCS package via Red Hat update channels (later than 0.11.4-6.el9, incorporating the CVE-2023-28154 fix)

  1. Run 'dnf check-update' or 'yum update' to check for available PCS updates
  2. Update the PCS package using 'sudo dnf update pcs' or 'sudo yum update pcs'
  3. After updating, verify the new version with 'rpm -q pcs' to confirm the fix is applied
  4. Restart any PCS services if necessary to load the updated package
Caveat Standard package update - minimal risk; as a security fix, should not introduce functional changes
