DESCRIPTION:
A weakness and a vulnerability have been reported in Puppet, which
can be exploited by malicious users to disclose certain sensitive
information and by malicious people to conduct cross-site request
forgery attacks.

1) The weakness is caused due to an unspecified error within the
pe_mcollective module and can be exploited to gain access to the
catalog containing SSL keys.

NOTE: Successful exploitation requires root access to a single node
in a Puppet Enterprise deployment.

2) The application allows users to perform certain actions via HTTP
requests without performing proper validity checks to verify the
requests. This can be exploited to perform certain unspecified
actions against the Administrator user interface when a logged-in
user visits a specially crafted web page.

The weakness and a vulnerability are reported in version 2.7.0. Prior
versions may also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Update to version 2.7.1.

PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
Reported by the vendor.
