Summary
Red Hat Security Advisory: cfme security, bug fix, and enhancement update

Notes

Topic
Updated cfme packages that fix one security issue, several bugs, and add various enhancements are now available for Red Hat CloudForms 3.0. The Red Hat Security Response Team has rated this update as having moderate security impact. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available from the CVE link in the References section.
Details
Red Hat CloudForms Management Engine delivers the insight, control, and automation enterprises need to address the challenges of managing virtual environments, which are far more complex than physical ones. This technology enables enterprises with existing virtual infrastructures to improve visibility and control, and those just starting virtualization deployments to build and operate a well-managed virtual infrastructure. It was found that sending a GET request for a destructive action could bypass the Ruby on Rails protect_from_forgery mechanism. A remote attacker could use this flaw to perform Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) attacks against CloudForms applications. (CVE-2013-6443) This issue was discovered by Martin Povolný of Red Hat. This update fixes several bugs and adds multiple enhancements. Documentation for these changes will be available shortly from the Red Hat CloudForms 3.0 Management Engine 5.2 Technical Notes linked to in the References section. All users of Red Hat CloudForms are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which contain backported patches to correct these issues and add these enhancements.
