Package

Affected versions

Patched versions

quinteros-2

Description

Description

A flaw was found in ManageIQ where a malicious payload could be given to Policy import which could run arbitrary code.

Mitigation

If possible, restrict users, via RBAC, to only the part of the application that they need access to. By default, policy import is only available to admins.

At this time there are no workarounds outside of directly patching with the fixed code, so it is recommended to upgrade immediately to a patched version.

Acknowledgements

ManageIQ would like to thank Divyesh Prajapati for reporting this issue.

CVSS v3 base metrics

Attack vector: More severe the more the remote (logically and physically) an attacker can be in order to exploit the vulnerability.
Attack complexity: More severe for the least complex attacks.
Privileges required: More severe if no privileges are required.
User interaction: More severe when no user interaction is required.
Scope: More severe when a scope change occurs, e.g. one vulnerable component impacts resources in components beyond its security scope.
Confidentiality: More severe when loss of data confidentiality is highest, measuring the level of data access available to an unauthorized user.
Integrity: More severe when loss of data integrity is the highest, measuring the consequence of data modification possible by an unauthorized user.
Availability: More severe when the loss of impacted component availability is highest.
