1. Summary:

CloudForms System Engine 1.1.2 is now available.

The Red Hat Security Response Team has rated this update as having moderate

which give detailed severity ratings, are available for each vulnerability
from the CVE links in the References section.

2. Relevant releases/architectures:

CloudForms System Engine for RHEL 6 Server - noarch

3. Description:

Red Hat CloudForms is an on-premise hybrid cloud
Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) product that lets you create and manage
private and public clouds. It provides self-service computing resources to
users in a managed, governed, and secure way. CloudForms System Engine can
be used to configure new systems, subscribe to updates, and maintain
installations in distributed environments.

It was found that the
"/usr/share/katello/script/katello-generate-passphrase" utility, which is
run during the installation and configuration process, set world-readable
permissions on the "/etc/katello/secure/passphrase" file. A local attacker
could use this flaw to obtain the passphrase for Katello, giving them
access to information they would otherwise not have access to.
(CVE-2012-5561)

Note: After installing this update, ensure the
"/etc/katello/secure/passphrase" file is owned by the root user and group
and mode 0750 permissions. Sites should also consider re-creating the
Katello passphrase as this issue exposed it to local users.

One task the katello-configure utility performs is creating an RPM to be
installed on client machines that need to connect to the Katello server. It
was found that this RPM set world-readable and writable permissions on the
pem file (containing the Certificate Authority certificate) used for
trusting the Katello server. An attacker could use this flaw to perform a
man-in-the-middle attack, allowing them to manage (such as installing and
removing software) Katello client systems. (CVE-2012-6116)

The CVE-2012-5561 issue was discovered by Aaron Weitekamp of the Red Hat
Cloud Quality Engineering team, and CVE-2012-6116 was discovered by Dominic
Cleal and James Laska of Red Hat.

This update also fixes the following bugs:

* The CloudForms System Engine command line tool incorrectly parsed
locales, which caused the following error:

"translation missing: de.activerecord.errors.messages.record_invalid"

This update replaces the controller for setting the locale. The translation
error no longer appears. (BZ#896251)

* Certain locales did not properly escape certain UI content for new role
creation. This broke the Save button for some locales. This update corrects
the escape behavior for localized UI content. The Save button now works
for new role creation. (BZ#896252)

* A missing icon stopped users from deleting recent or saved searches. This
update adds the icon and users can now delete recent or saved searches.
(BZ#896253)

* A performance issue in the Candlepin 0.7.8 component caused subscription
responsiveness to decrease as the number of systems subscribed to
CloudForms System Engine increases. This erratum updates to Candlepin
0.7.19, which corrects the performance issues. (BZ#896261)

* CloudForms System Engine would not fetch Extended Update Service (EUS)
entitlements. This blocked the user from seeing and enabling EUS
repositories. This update revises the manifest upload and deletion code,
which also corrects the behavior for fetching entitlements. System Engine
now fetches EUS entitlements. (BZ#896265)

* Issues with menu widths caused the localized UI to not render certain
menu items. This update corrects the style for the System Engine UI. The
Web UI now renders the menu items correctly. (BZ#903702)
