CVE-2013-6433 openstack-quantum/openstack-neutron: rootwrap sudo config allows potential privilege escalation
Last modified: 2016-04-26 10:47:36 EDT
Kashyap Chamarthy <kchamart@redhat.com> reports: It's possible for Neutron (OpenStack networking) users to pass arbitrary config files via rootwrap[*] which allows privilege escalation by letting user add more exec directories, change configurations of commands using rootwrap, log more than what needs to be done, etc.
