Description Garth Mollett 2014-03-05 06:01:07 UTC
Jeremy Choi and Keqin Hong of the Red Hat HSS Pen-Test Team reported that a lack of proper input validation could under some circumstances lead to partial DoS in foreman. This issue was already addressed upstream in http://projects.theforeman.org/issues/3697 however the DoS impact was not fully noted at the time.
