Detail

Problem Description:

Updated python-django-horizon packages that fix one security issue and several bugs are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform 3.0.

The Red Hat Security Response Team has rated this update as having Moderate security impact. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available from the CVE link in the References section.

2. Relevant releases/architectures:

OpenStack 3 - noarch

3. Description:

OpenStack Dashboard (horizon) provides administrators and users a graphical interface to access, provision and automate cloud-based resources. The dashboard allows cloud administrators to get an overall view of the size and state of the cloud and it provides end-users a self-service portal to provision their own resources within the limits set by administrators.

A flaw was found in the way OpenStack Dashboard sanitized the Instance Name string. By embedding HTML tags in an Instance Name, a remote attacker could use this flaw to execute a script within a victim's browser, resulting in a cross-site scripting (XSS) attack. Note that only setups using OpenStack Dashboard were affected. (CVE-2013-6858)

The python-django-horizon packages have been upgraded to upstream version 2013.1.5, which provides a number of bug fixes over the previous version. (BZ#1080584)

All python-django-horizon users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which correct these issues.
