Description Kurt Seifried 2015-08-10 20:01:14 UTC 
John Sefler of Red Hat reports:

Under heavy load Candlepin may experience timeouts resulting in Java exception 
errors that can contain sensitive information. This only affects sites using 
candlepin with extremely heavy loads, as such Satellite 6 and SAM 1 are not 
affected.
