OpenStack Dashboard (horizon) provides administrators and users with a
graphical interface to access, provision, and automate cloud-based
resources.
A cross-site scripting (XSS) flaw was found in the way orchestration
templates were handled. An owner of such a template could use this flaw to
perform XSS attacks against other Horizon users. (CVE-2014-3473)
It was found that network names were not sanitized. A malicious user could
use this flaw to perform XSS attacks against other Horizon users by
creating a network with a specially crafted name. (CVE-2014-3474)
It was found that certain email addresses were not sanitized. An
administrator could use this flaw to perform XSS attacks against other
Horizon users by storing an email address that has a specially crafted
name. (CVE-2014-3475)
A persistent cross-site scripting (XSS) flaw was found in the horizon host
aggregate interface. A user with sufficient privileges to add a host
aggregate could potentially use this flaw to capture the credentials of
another user. (CVE-2014-3594)
