Scientific Linux: SLSA-2014:1194-1 Moderate: Conga Security Issues

Moderate: conga security and bug fix update. Date: Mon, 13 Oct 2014 15:44:25 +0000 Reply-To: scientific-linux-users@ Sender: Security Errata for Scientific Linux From: Bonnie King Subject: Security ERRATA Moderate: conga on SL5.x i386/x86_64 MIME-Version: 1.0 Synopsis: Moderate: conga security and bug fix update Advisory ID: SLSA-2014:1194-1 Issue Date: 2014-09-16 CVE Numbers: CVE-2012-5500 CVE-2012-5499 CVE-2012-5498 CVE-2012-5497 CVE-2012-5485 CVE-2012-5486 CVE-2012-5488 CVE-2013-6496 CVE-2014-3521 -- It was discovered that Plone, included as a part of luci, did not properly protect the administrator interface (control panel). A remote attacker could use this flaw to inject a specially crafted Python statement or script into Plone's restricted Python sandbox that, when the administrator interface was accessed, would be executed with the privileges of that administrator user. (CVE-2012-5485) It was discovered that Plone, included as a part of luci, did not properly sanitize HTTP headers provided within certain URL requests. A remote attacker could use a specially crafted URL that, when processed, would cause the injected HTTP headers to be returned as a part of the Plone HTTP response, potentially allowing the attacker to perform other more advanced attacks. (CVE-2012-5486) Multiple information leak flaws were found in the way conga processed luci site extension-related URL requests. A remote, unauthenticated attacker could issue a specially crafted HTTP request that, when processed, would result in unauthorized information disclosure. (CVE-2013-6496) It was discovered that various components in the luci site extension- related URLs were not properly restricted to administrative users. A remote, authenticated attacker could escalate their privileges to perform certain actions that should be restricted to administrative users, such as adding users and systems, and viewing log data. (CVE-2014-3521) It was discovered that Plone, included as a part of luci, did not properly protect theprivilege of running RestrictedPython scripts. A remote attacker could use a specially crafted URL that, when processed, would allow the attacker to submit and perform expensive computations or, in conjunction with other attacks, be able to access or alter privileged information. (CVE-2012-5488) It was discovered that Plone, included as a part of luci, did not properly enforce permissions checks on the membership database. A remote attacker could use a specially crafted URL that, when processed, could allow the attacker to enumerate user account names. (CVE-2012-5497) It was discovered that Plone, included as a part of luci, did not properly handle the processing of requests for certain collections. A remote attacker could use a specially crafted URL that, when processed, would lead to excessive I/O and/or cache resource consumption. (CVE-2012-5498) It was discovered that Plone, included as a part of luci, did not properly handle the processing of very large values passed to an internal utility function. A remote attacker could use a specially crafted URL that, when processed, would lead to excessive memory consumption. (CVE-2012-5499) It was discovered that Plone, included as a part of luci, allowed a remote anonymous user to change titles of content items due to improper permissions checks. (CVE-2012-5500) The CVE-2014-3521 issue was discovered by Radek Steiger of Red Hat, and the CVE-2013-6496 issue was discovered by Jan Pokorny of Red Hat. Users are directed to the Scientific Linux 5.11 Technical Notes, linked to in the References section, for information on the most significant of these changes After installing this update, the luci and ricci services will be restarted automatically. -- SL5 x86_64 conga-debuginfo-0.12.2-81.el5.x86_64.rpm luci-0.12.2-81.el5.x86_64.rpm ricci-0.12.2-81.el5.x86_64.rpm i386 conga-debuginfo-0.12.2-81.el5.i386.rpm luci-0.12.2-81.el5.i386.rpm ricci-0.12.2-81.el5.i386.rpm - Scientific Linux Development Team .

Scientific Linux: CVE-2012-3359 Low: Conga SL5.x i386/x86_64

Low: conga security, bug fix, and enhancement update. Date: Wed, 16 Jan 2013 16:10:18 -0600 Reply-To: Pat Riehecky Sender: Security Errata for Scientific Linux From: Pat Riehecky Organization: Fermilab Subject: Security ERRATA Low: conga on SL5.x i386/x86_64 MIME-Version: 1.0 Synopsis: Low: conga security, bug fix, and enhancement update Issue Date: 2013-01-08 CVE Numbers: CVE-2012-3359 -- It was discovered that luci stored usernames and passwords in session cookies. This issue prevented the session inactivity timeout feature from working correctly, and allowed attackers able to get access to a session cookie to obtain the victim's authentication credentials. (CVE-2012-3359) This update also fixes the following bugs: * Prior to this update, luci did not allow the fence_apc_snmp agent to be configured. As a consequence, users could not configure or view an existing configuration for fence_apc_snmp. This update adds a new screen that allows fence_apc_snmp to be configured. * Prior to this update, luci did not allow the SSL operation of the fence_ilo fence agent to be enabled or disabled. As a consequence, users could not configure or view an existing configuration for the 'ssl' attribute for fence_ilo. This update adds a checkbox to show whether the SSL operation is enabled and allows users to edit that attribute. * Prior to this update, luci did not allow the "identity_file" attribute of the fence_ilo_mp fence agent to be viewed or edited. As a consequence, users could not configure or view an existing configuration for the "identity_file" attribute of the fence_ilo_mp fence agent. This update adds a text input box to show the current state of the "identity_file" attribute of fence_ilo_mp and allows users to edit that attribute. * Prior to this update, redundant files and directories remained on the file system at /var/lib/luci/var/pts and /usr/lib{,64}/luci/zope/var/pts when the luci package was uninstalled. This update removes these files and directories when the luci package is uninstalled. *Prior to this update, the "restart-disable" recovery policy was not displayed in the recovery policy list from which users could select when they configure a recovery policy for a failover domain. As a consequence, the "restart-disable" recovery policy could not be set with the luci GUI. This update adds the "restart-disable" recovery option to the recovery policy pulldown list. * Prior to this update, line breaks that were not anticipated in the "yum list" output could cause package upgrade and/or installation to fail when creating clusters or adding nodes to existing clusters. As a consequence, creating clusters and adding cluster nodes to existing clusters could fail. This update modifies the ricci daemon to be able to correctly handle line breaks in the "yum list" output. In addition, this update adds the following enhancements: * This update adds support for configuring the Intel iPDU fence agent to the luci package. * This update adds support for viewing and changing the state of the new 'nfsrestart' attribute to the FS and Cluster FS resource agent configuration screens.

Summary: Updated conga packages that fix one security issue, multiple bugs, and add two enhancements are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5. The Red Hat Security Response Team has rated this update as having low 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. 2. Relevant releases/architectures: RHEL Clustering (v. 5 server) - i386, ia64, ppc, x86_64 3. Description: The Conga project is a management system for remote workstations. It consists of luci, which is a secure web-based front end, and ricci, which is a secure daemon that dispatches incoming messages to underlying management modules. It was discovered that luci stored usernames and passwords in session cookies. This issue prevented the session inactivity timeout feature from working correctly, and allowed attackers able to get access to a session cookie to obtain the victim's authentication credentials. (CVE-2012-3359) Red Hat would like to thank George Hedfors of Cybercom Sweden East AB for reporting this issue. This update also fixes the following bugs: * Prior to this update, luci did not allow the fence_apc_snmp agent to be configured. As a consequence, users could not configure or view an existing configuration forfence_apc_snmp. This update adds a new screen that allows fence_apc_snmp to be configured. (BZ#832181) * Prior to this update, luci did not allow the SSL operation of the fence_ilo fence agent to be enabled or disabled. As a consequence, userscould not configure or view an existing configuration for the 'ssl' attribute for fence_ilo. This update adds a checkbox to show whether the SSL operation is enabled and allows users to edit that attribute. (BZ#832183) * Prior to this update, luci did not allow the "identity_file" attribute of the fence_ilo_mp fence agent to be viewed or edited. As a consequence, users could not configure or view an existing configuration for the "identity_file" attribute of the fence_ilo_mp fence agent. This update adds a text input box to show the current state of the "identity_file" attribute of fence_ilo_mp and allows users to edit that attribute. (BZ#832185) * Prior to this update, redundant files and directories remained on the file system at /var/lib/luci/var/pts and /usr/lib{,64}/luci/zope/var/pts when the luci package was uninstalled. This update removes these files and directories when the luci package is uninstalled. (BZ#835649) * Prior to this update, the "restart-disable" recovery policy was not displayed in the recovery policy list from which users could select when they configure a recovery policy for a failover domain. As a consequence, the "restart-disable" recovery policy could not be set with the luci GUI. This update adds the "restart-disable" recovery option to the recovery policy pulldown list. (BZ#839732) * Prior to this update, line breaks that were not anticipated in the "yum list" output could cause package upgrade and/or installation to fail when creating clusters or adding nodes to existing clusters. As a consequence, creating clusters and adding cluster nodes to existing clusters could fail. This update modifies the ricci daemon to be able to correctly handle line breaks in the "yum list" output. (BZ#842865) In addition, this update adds the followingenhancements: * This update adds support for configuring the Intel iPDU fence agent to the luci package. (BZ#741986) * This update adds support for viewing and changing the state of the new 'nfsrestart' attribute to the FS and Cluster FS resource agent configuration screens.
