Descriptions

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the API in Ubuntu Metal as a Service (MaaS) 1.2 and 1.4 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the op parameter to nodes/.

Vulnerabilidad de XSS en la API en Ubuntu Metal como un servicio (MaaS) 1.2 y 1.4 permite a atacantes remotos inyectar script Web o HTML arbitrarios a través del parámetro op hacia nodes/.

James Troup discovered that MAAS stored RabbitMQ authentication credentials in a world-readable file. A local authenticated user could read this password and potentially gain privileges of other user accounts. This update restricts the file permissions to prevent unintended access. Chris Glass discovered that the MAAS API was vulnerable to cross-site scripting vulnerabilities. With cross-site scripting vulnerabilities, if a user were tricked into viewing a specially crafted page, a remote attacker could exploit this to modify the contents, or steal confidential data, within the same domain. Various other issues were also addressed.
