Red Hat Security Advisory 2014-1390-02
Posted Oct 14, 2014
Authored by Red Hat | Site access.redhat.com

Red Hat Security Advisory 2014-1390-02 - Luci is a web-based high availability administration application. It was discovered that luci used eval() on inputs containing strings from the cluster configuration file when generating its web pages. An attacker with privileges to create or edit the cluster configuration could use this flaw to execute arbitrary code as the luci user on a host running luci. This issue was discovered by Jan Pokorny of Red Hat. These updated luci packages also include several bug fixes and multiple enhancements. Space precludes documenting all of these changes in this advisory. Users are directed to the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.6 Technical Notes, linked to in the References section, for information on the most significant of these changes.
