Detail

Problem Description:

Updated python-django-horizon packages that fix one security issue are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform 4.0.

The Red Hat Security Response Team has rated this update as having Low 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:

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 discovered in OpenStack Dashboard that could allow a remote attacker to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks if they were able to trick a horizon user into using a malicious heat template. Note that only setups exposing the orchestration dashboard in OpenStack Dashboard were affected. (CVE-2014-0157)

Red Hat would like to thank the OpenStack project for reporting this issue. Upstream acknowledges Cristian Fiorentino from Intel as the original reporter.

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