A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives:

- Ubuntu 12.04 LTS

Summary:

OpenStack Horizon could help expose sensitive information.

Details:

Thomas Biege discovered that the Horizon authentication mechanism did not validate the next parameter. An attacker could use this to construct a link to legitimate OpenStack web dashboard that redirected the user to a malicious website after authentication.

Update instructions:

The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following package versions:

Ubuntu 12.04 LTS:
openstack-dashboard 2012.1.3+stable~20120815-691dd2-0ubuntu1.1
