Red Hat Security Advisory 2016-1271-01 - OpenStack Dashboard provides administrators and users with a graphical interface to access, provision, and automate cloud-based resources. Security Fix: A DOM-based, cross-site scripting vulnerability was found in the OpenStack dashboard, where user input was not filtered correctly. An authenticated dashboard user could exploit the flaw by injecting an AngularJS template into a dashboard form, triggering the vulnerability when another user browsed the affected page. As a result, this flaw could result in user accounts being compromised.

=====================================================================

1. Summary:

An update for python-django-horizon is now available for Red Hat Enterprise
Linux OpenStack Platform 6.0 (Juno) for RHEL 7.

Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security impact
of Important. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score,
which gives a detailed severity rating, is available for each vulnerability
from the CVE link(s) in the References section.

2. Relevant releases/architectures:

Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform 6.0 (Juno) for RHEL 7 - noarch

3. Description:

OpenStack Dashboard (Horizon) provides administrators and users with a
graphical interface to access, provision, and automate cloud-based
resources.

Security Fix(es):

* A DOM-based, cross-site scripting vulnerability was found in the
OpenStack dashboard, where user input was not filtered correctly. An
authenticated dashboard user could exploit the flaw by injecting an
AngularJS template into a dashboard form (for example, using an image's
description), triggering the vulnerability when another user browsed the
affected page. As a result, this flaw could result in user accounts being
compromised (for example, user-access credentials being stolen).
(CVE-2016-4428)

Red Hat would like to thank the OpenStack project for reporting this issue.
Upstream acknowledges Beth Lancaster (Virginia Tech) and Brandon Sawyers
(Virginia Tech) as the original reporters.

Bug Fix(es):

* Having two security groups with the same name previously resulted in not
being able to launch an instance if it used one of these groups. This bug
has been fixed. (BZ#1293232)

* Previously, under some circumstances, the hypervisor list was not
alphabetized. In this update, the sort attribute has been changed, and
badly sorted lists no longer occur. (BZ#1238092)

4. Solution:

described in this advisory, refer to:
