Synopsis: Important: python-django-horizon security and bug fix update

Advisory ID: RHSA-2016:1271-01

Product: Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform

Advisory URL: https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2016:1271

Issue date: 2016-06-21

CVE Names: CVE-2016-4428

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

 

1. Summary:

 

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

Linux OpenStack Platform 6.0 (Juno) 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 6.0 (Juno) 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.

 

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).

(CVE-2016-4428)

 

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

Upstream acknowledges Beth Lancaster (Virginia Tech) and Brandon Sawyers

(Virginia Tech) as the original reporters.

 

Bug Fix(es):

 

* Having two security groups with the same name previously resulted in not

being able to launch an instance if it used one of these groups. This bug

has been fixed. (BZ#1293232)

 

* Previously, under some circumstances, the hypervisor list was not

alphabetized. In this update, the sort attribute has been changed, and

badly sorted lists no longer occur. (BZ#1238092)
