I'm afraid not (though I didn't persevere, because for the moment we are
trying to encourage our users not to waste resources with a different
approach).

But, in any case, I would still be interested in a site factor plugin
example, because I might revisit this in the future.

Cheers,

Is it any different than the CVE-2023-41915 in PMIx or does it just have
an additional number but it's the same issue? Or did anyone mis-type the
number? I couldn't find any information on CVE-2023-41914.

If you look at the downloads page, this has happened before:

https://www.schedmd.com/archives.php

This should probably be updated as well, to indicate the new floor after this 
CVE.

But the point is, basically, you’re going to hit this if you don’t upgrade at 
least every ~18 months.

SchedMD recommends to use the currently supported versions (currently 
22.05 or 23.02).  Next month 23.11 will be released and 22.05 will become 
unsupported.


The question for sites is whether they can accept running software that 
contains known security holes?  That goes for Slurm as well as all other 
software such as the Linux kernel etc. etc.  We don't yet know the CVE 
score for CVE-2023-41914, but SchedMD's description of the fixes sounds 
pretty serious.


IMHO, your organization's IT security policy should be consulted in order 
to answer your question.

Did you ever find an example or write your own plugin which you could
provide as a example?
