Description

A flaw was found in Foreman. A remote attacker could exploit a command injection vulnerability in Foreman's WebSocket proxy implementation. This vulnerability arises from the system's use of unsanitized hostname values from compute resource providers when constructing shell commands. By operating a malicious compute resource server, an attacker could achieve remote code execution on the Foreman server when a user accesses VM VNC console functionality. This could lead to the compromise of sensitive credentials and the entire managed infrastructure.

Analysis

Remote code execution is achievable in Red Hat Foreman and Satellite 6 via command injection in the WebSocket proxy implementation when users access VM VNC console functionality. An attacker controlling a malicious compute resource server can inject unsanitized hostname values into shell commands, compromising the Foreman server and potentially the entire managed infrastructure. …

Sign in for full analysis, threat intelligence, and remediation guidance.

Remediation

Within 24 hours: inventory all Red Hat Foreman and Satellite 6 instances, document versions, and identify which systems have external or untrusted compute resource server connections. Within 7 days: implement network segmentation to restrict compute resource server access and disable VNC console functionality if operationally feasible, pending vendor patch availability. …
