1. Summary:
Updated spacewalk packages that fix one security issue are now available
for Red Hat Satellite 5.7.
Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having Moderate 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:
Red Hat Satellite 5.7 (RHEL v.6) - noarch
3. Description:
Red Hat Satellite is a system management tool for Linux-based
infrastructures. It allows for provisioning, monitoring, and remote
management of multiple Linux deployments with a single, centralized tool.
It was found that the RPC interface in Satellite would resolve external
entities, allowing an attacker to conduct XML External Entity (XXE)
attacks. A remote attacker could use this flaw to read files accessible to
the user running the Satellite server, and potentially perform other more
advanced XXE attacks. (CVE-2014-8162)
Red Hat would like to thank Travis Emmert for reporting this issue.
All spacewalk users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which
contain a backported patch to correct this issue.
