1. Summary:

 

An update for openstack-manila-ui is now available for Red Hat OpenStack

Platform 9.0 (Mitaka).

 

Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security impact

of Moderate. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which

gives a detailed severity rating, is available for each vulnerability from

the CVE link(s) in the References section.

 

2. Relevant releases/architectures:

3. Description:

 

OpenStack's File Share Service (manila) provides the means to easily

provision shared file systems that can be consumed by multiple instances.

These shared file systems are provisioned from pre-existing, back-end

volumes. The UI component provides the dashboard plugin for the service.

 

Security Fix(es):

 

* A cross-site scripting flaw was discovered in openstack-manila-ui's

Metadata field contained in its "Create Share" form. A user could inject

malicious HTML/JavaScript code that would then be reflected in the "Shares"

overview. Remote, authenticated, but unprivileged users could exploit this

vulnerability to steal session cookies and escalate their privileges.
