Summary
The Red Hat Support plug-in for Red Hat OpenStack is a Technology Preview
feature which offers seamless integrated access to Red Hat subscription
services from the Red Hat OpenStack administration portal. The plug-in
provides automated functionality that enables quicker help, answers, and
proactive services. It offers easy and instant access to Red Hat exclusive

It was found that the local log-viewing function of the

user input. An authenticated user could use this flaw to read an arbitrary
file with the permissions of the web server. (CVE-2015-0271)
