Descriptions
The Inter-Satellite Sync (ISS) operation in Red Hat Network (RHN) Satellite 5.3, 5.4, and 5.5 does not properly check client "authenticity," which allows remote attackers to obtain channel content by skipping the initial authentication call.
La operación Inter-Satellite Sync (ISS) en Red Hat Network (RHN) Satellite 5.3, 5.4, y 5.5 no valida adecuadamente la "autenticidad" del cliente, lo que permite a atacantes remotos obtener el contenido de un canal evitando la llamada inicial para la autenticación.
Red Hat Network 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 discovered that Red Hat Network Satellite did not fully check the authenticity of a client beyond the initial authentication check during an Inter-Satellite Sync operation. If a remote attacker were to modify the satellite-sync client to skip the initial authentication call, they could obtain all channel content from any Red Hat Network Satellite server that could be reached, even if Inter-Satellite Sync support was disabled.
