from debian's security tracker : Description: SchedMD Slurm before 24.05.4 has Incorrect Authorization. A mistake in authentication handling in stepmgr could permit an attacker to execute processes under other users' jobs. This is limited to jobs explicitly running with --stepmgr, or on systems that have globally enabled stepmgr via SlurmctldParameters=enable_stepmgr in their configuration. upstream's release anouncment is here : https://www.schedmd.com/slurm-version-24-05-4-is-now-available/ Reproducible: Always
