What is CVE-2018-14649?

The ceph-isci-cli package utilized in Red Hat Ceph Storage 2 and 3 has been found to operate the python-werkzeug library in debug shell mode due to a misconfiguration. By setting debug=True in the rbd-target-api, it unwittingly exposes a debug shell to unauthorized users. Exploiting this vulnerability grants attackers the ability to remotely execute arbitrary commands with the privileges of the user running the application, effectively allowing privilege escalation, which can result in significant security risks.
