Issue date: 2016-06-21

=====================================================================

 

1. Summary:

 

An update for python-django-horizon is now available for Red Hat

Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform 7.0 (Kilo) for RHEL 7.

 

Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security

impact of Important. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base

score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available for each

vulnerability from the CVE link(s) in the References section.

 

2. Relevant releases/architectures:

 

Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform 7.0 (Kilo) for RHEL 7 - noarch

 

3. Description:

 

OpenStack Dashboard (Horizon) provides administrators and users with a

graphical interface to access, provision, and automate cloud-based

resources.

 

The following packages have been upgraded to a newer upstream version:

python-django-horizon: 2015.1.4 (BZ#1345822)

 

Security Fix(es):

 

* A DOM-based, cross-site scripting vulnerability was found in the

OpenStack dashboard, where user input was not filtered correctly. An

authenticated dashboard user could exploit the flaw by injecting an

AngularJS template into a dashboard form (for example, using an image's

description), triggering the vulnerability when another user browsed

the affected page. As a result, this flaw could result in user accounts

being compromised (for example, user-access credentials being stolen).

Red Hat would like to thank the OpenStack project for reporting this issue.

Upstream acknowledges Beth Lancaster (Virginia Tech) and Brandon Sawyers
