    Red Hat CloudForms Management Engine delivers the insight, control, and automation needed to address the     challenges of managing virtual environments. CloudForms Management Engine is built on Ruby on Rails, a     model-view controller (MVC) framework for web application development. Action Pack implements the     controller and the view components.

    This update fixes various bugs and adds several enhancements. Documentation for these changes is available     in the Release Notes linked to in the References section.

    Security Fix(es):

    * A logic error in valid_role() in CloudForms role validation could allow a     tenant administrator to create groups with a higher privilege level than     the tenant administrator should have. This would allow an attacker with     tenant administration access to elevate privileges. (CVE-2017-2632)

    This issue was discovered by Matou Moj (Red Hat).

    All CFME users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which correct these issues and add these     enhancements.

the libi18n-ruby package does not contain the vulnerable code.

    Security Fix(es):

    * A flaw was found in CloudForms in the self-service UI snapshot feature where the name field is not     properly sanitized for HTML and JavaScript input.
