Comment 6 Richard Maciel Costa 2018-07-19 22:34:55 EDT
Mitigation:

Administrators of the CloudForms appliance can filter local packages going to the port where MIQ Server is listening, by using the following iptables command:
# iptables -I OUTPUT 1 -o lo -d localhost/32 -p tcp -m tcp --dport <MIQ Server port> -m owner '!' --uid-owner root -j DROP

Where the MIQ Server port can be found using netstat command:
# netstat -nl --tcp -p | grep -i "miq server"
