Red Hat Security Advisory 2013-1171-01 – HTCondor is a specialized workload management system for compute-intensive jobs. It provides a job queuing mechanism, scheduling policy, priority scheme, and resource monitoring and management. A denial of service flaw was found in the way HTCondor’s policy definition evaluator processed certain policy definitions. If an administrator used an attribute defined on a job in a CONTINUE, KILL, PREEMPT, or SUSPEND condor_startd policy, a remote HTCondor service user could use this flaw to cause condor_startd to exit by submitting a job that caused such a policy definition to be evaluated to either the ERROR or UNDEFINED states….
