librados2 security updates not included base RHEL7 channel
Issue
- In base RHEL7 (rhel-7-server-rpms), the latest version of librados2 is 0.94.5-1. There have been multiple security updates to librados2 in the Ceph 1.3 and Ceph 2 storage channels, but not the base RHEL7 channel. Since librados2 is a requirement for device-mapper-multipath-libs, we need this library for systems that use multipath. Our vulnerability scanner is reporting that our librados2 library is out of date.
• 0.94.5-1 - latest rhel-7-server-rpms
• 0.94.9-9.el7cp - latest rhel-7-server-rhceph-1.3-tools-rpms
• 10.2.5-37.el7cp - latest from rhel-7-server-rhceph-2-tools-rpms
