DESCRIPTION:
Red Hat has acknowledged a vulnerability in Red Hat Enterprise MRG,
which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a vulnerable
system.

The vulnerability is caused due to insufficient access restrictions
to the Condor QMF plug-ins, which can be exploited to e.g. submit
jobs which will be run as a non-root user.

Successful exploitation requires that the attacker is able to publish
to a broker.

SOLUTION:
Updated packages are available via the Red Hat Network.
