Description Vincent Danen 2012-08-08 01:12:52 UTC

Florian Weimer reported that authenticated users could instruct Cumin to submit a job attribute change to Condor, simply be submitting a crafted POST request with certain additional parameters.  This job could be used to change internal Condor attributes, including the Owner attribute, allowing Cumin users to elevate their privileges.
