cfme: Improper access control in dRuby allows local users to execute arbitrary commands as root

CloudForms Management Engine (cfme) is vulnerable to an improper security setting in the dRuby component of CloudForms. An attacker with access to an unprivileged local shell could use this flaw to execute commands as a high privileged user.

cloudforms: stored cross-site scripting in Name field

cloudforms version, cloudforms 5.8 and cloudforms 5.9, is vulnerable to a cross-site-scripting. A flaw was found in CloudForms's v2v infrastructure mapping delete feature. A stored cross-site scripting due to improper sanitization of user input in Name field.

cfme: Execution of arbitrary methods through filter param

In CloudForms Management Engine (cfme) before 5.7.3 and 5.8.x before 5.8.1, it was found that privilege check is missing when invoking arbitrary methods via filtering on VMs that MiqExpression will execute that is triggerable by API users. An attacker could use this to execute actions they should not be allowed to (e.g. destroying VMs).

Ansible Tower as shipped with Red Hat CloudForms Management Engine 5 is vulnerable to CRLF Injection. It was found that X-Forwarded-For header allows internal servers to deploy other systems (using callback).

CFME: Dialog for creating cloud volumes does not filter cloud tenants CVE-2017-7497

The dialog for creating cloud volumes (cinder provider) in CloudForms does not filter cloud tenants by user. An attacker with the ability to create storage volumes could use this to create storage volumes for any other tenant.

CloudForms: lack of RBAC on various methods in web UI

CloudForms Management Engine (cfme) before 5.7.3 and 5.8.x before 5.8.1 lacks RBAC controls on certain methods in the rails application portion of CloudForms. An attacker with access could use a variety of methods within the rails application portion of CloudForms to escalate privileges.

CloudForms: UI security issue on Openstack actions

A number of unused delete routes are present in CloudForms before 5.7.2.1 which can be accessed via GET requests instead of just POST requests. This could allow an attacker to bypass the protect_from_forgery XSRF protection causing the routes to be used. This attack would require additional cross-site scripting or similar attacks in order to execute.

CloudForms: cloudforms fails to properly check certificates when communicating with RHEV and OpenShift and custom CA

It was found that CloudForms does not verify that the server hostname matches the domain name in the certificate when using a custom CA and communicating with Red Hat Virtualization (RHEV) and OpenShift. This would allow an attacker to spoof RHEV or OpenShift systems and potentially harvest sensitive information from CloudForms.

cfme: tenant administrator can create a group with higher permissions

A logic error in valid_role() in CloudForms role validation before 5.7.1.3 could allow a tenant administrator to create groups with a higher privilege level than the tenant administrator should have. This would allow an attacker with tenant administration access to elevate privileges.

cloudforms: XSS in self-service UI snapshot feature

A flaw was found in CloudForms before 5.9.0.22 in the self-service UI snapshot feature where the name field is not properly sanitized for HTML and JavaScript input. An attacker could use this flaw to execute a stored XSS attack on an application administrator using CloudForms. Please note that CSP (Content Security Policy) prevents exploitation of this XSS however not all browsers support CSP.

CloudForms: RSS links are accessible without any authentication

A flaw was found in the CloudForms web interface, versions 5.8 - 5.10, where the RSS feed URLs are not properly restricted to authenticated users only. An attacker could use this flaw to view potentially sensitive information from CloudForms including data such as newly created virtual machines.

CFME: bypass authorization by altering VM ID

It was found that the CloudForms before 5.6.2.2, and 5.7.0.7 did not properly apply permissions controls to VM IDs passed by users. A remote, authenticated attacker could use this flaw to execute arbitrary VMs on systems managed by CloudForms if they know the ID of the VM.

cfme: API leaks any MiqReportResult

A flaw was found in the CloudForms API before 5.6.3.0, 5.7.3.1 and 5.8.1.2. A user with permissions to use the MiqReportResults capability within the API could potentially view data from other tenants or groups to which they should not have access.

cfme: RCE via Capacity & Utilization feature

A code injection flaw was found in the way capacity and utilization imported control files are processed. A remote, authenticated attacker with access to the capacity and utilization feature could use this flaw to execute arbitrary code as the user CFME runs as.

CFME: http.verify_mode = OpenSSL::SSL::VERIFY_NONE

A insecure configuration for certificate verification (http.verify_mode = OpenSSL::SSL::VERIFY_NONE) may lead to verification bypass in Red Hat CloudForms 5.x.

CFME: RHN account info logged to top_output.log during registration

CFME (CloudForms Management Engine) 5: RHN account information is logged to top_output.log during registration

CFME: CSRF protection vulnerability in referrer header

CFME: CSRF protection vulnerability via permissive check of the referrer header

CFME: check_privileges logic error resulting in privilege escalation

The check_privileges method in vmdb/app/controllers/application_controller.rb in ManageIQ, as used in Red Hat CloudForms Management Engine (CFME), allows remote authenticated users to bypass authorization and gain privileges by leveraging improper RBAC checking, related to the rbac_user_edit action.
