Red Hat: 2014:0461-01: openshift-origin-broker-util: Important Advisory
Summary
The openshift-origin-broker-util package provides utility scripts for the
OpenShift Broker service, which manages all user logins, DNS name
resolution, application states, and general orchestration of the
applications.
It was discovered that the mcollective client.cfg configuration file was
world-readable by default. A malicious, local user on a host with the
OpenShift Broker installed could read sensitive information regarding the
mcollective installation, including mcollective authentication credentials.
A malicious user able to obtain said credentials would potentially have
full control over all OpenShift nodes managed via mcollective.
(CVE-2014-0164)
This issue was discovered by Jeremy Choi of the Red Hat Quality
Engineering Group.
All openshift-origin-broker-util users are advised to upgrade to this
updated package, which corrects this issue.
