Security readout for executives and security teams
CVE-2016-9867 is a local privilege escalation issue in EMC ScaleIO before 2.0.1.1. A low-privileged user on an affected ScaleIO Data Client server may be able to gain root-level control through the SCINI kernel driver. Exposure is limited to environments running EMC ScaleIO versions before 2.0.1.1, specifically ScaleIO Data Client servers where local user access exists. Treat this as a high-priority infrastructure hardening issue if ScaleIO SDC servers are present. Business urgency is highest where many administrators or users have local access. Mitigation focus: Upgrade affected EMC ScaleIO deployments to version 2.0.1.1 or later.; Confirm vendor guidance for any supported workaround or compensating control.; Restrict local shell access on ScaleIO Data Client servers..
