Summary
Red Hat Security Advisory: OpenShift Virtualization v4.12 Images
Severity
Important
Notes
Topic: Red Hat OpenShift Virtualization release v4.12 is now available with updates to packages and images that fix several bugs and add enhancements.
Details: OpenShift Virtualization is Red Hat's virtualization solution designed for Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform. This advisory contains OpenShift Virtualization v4.12 images.

A flaw was found in DOMPurify, a tool designed to sanitize HTML, MathML, and SVG to prevent cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks. When performing in-place sanitization, DOMPurify could fail to properly process content within shadow DOM elements attached to a <template>.content. This oversight allows an attacker to embed malicious code, such as JavaScript, which could then execute when the sanitized template is used by an application, potentially leading to unauthorized actions or information disclosure.

CWE-79 - Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting')

Vendor Fix fix
Threats
Impact Important

A flaw was found in js-yaml, a JavaScript YAML parser and dumper. A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability by providing a specially crafted YAML document containing a chain of mappings with merge keys. This could cause the parser to consume excessive CPU resources, leading to a Denial of Service (DoS) for the affected system.

CWE-606 - Unchecked Input for Loop Condition
