Critical NGINX CVE-2021-23017 patch available

Hi, we’ve patched ondemand-nginx for CVE-2021-23017. This CVE does not affect OnDemand because we do not use the resolver directive, but we’ve patched it just for good measure.

To update perform the following operation:

# EL7
yum update ondemand-nginx

# EL8
dnf update ondemand-nginx

In order to ensure all PUNs are using the patched NGINX it’s recommended to force kill all PUNs:

/opt/ood/nginx_stage/sbin/nginx_stage nginx_clean --force
