Multiple security issues have been discovered in the Xen virtualisation
solution which may result in denial of service, information disclosure
or privilege escalation.
Integer overflow in the MallocFrameBuffer function in vncviewer.c in LibVNCServer 0.9.9 and earlier allows remote VNC servers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via an advertisement for a large screen size, which triggers a heap-based buffer overflow.
Multiple stack-based buffer overflows in the File Transfer feature in rfbserver.c in LibVNCServer 0.9.9 and earlier allow remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a (1) long file or (2) directory name or the (3) FileTime attribute in a rfbFileTransferOffer message.
Red Hat Security Advisory 2014-1336-01 – OpenStack Dashboard provides administrators and users a graphical interface to access, provision and automate cloud-based resources. The dashboard allows cloud administrators to get an overall view of the size and state of the cloud and it provides end-users a self-service portal to provision their own resources within the limits set by administrators. A persistent cross-site scripting flaw was found in the horizon host aggregate interface. A user with sufficient privileges to add a host aggregate could potentially use this flaw to capture the credentials of another user.

Red Hat Security Advisory 2014-1337-01 – OpenStack Image service provides discovery, registration, and delivery services for disk and server images. It provides the ability to copy or snapshot a server image, and immediately store it away. Stored images can be used as a template to get new servers up and running quickly and more consistently than installing a server operating system and individually configuring additional services. It was discovered that the image_size_cap configuration option in glance was not honored. An authenticated user could use this flaw to upload an image to glance and consume all available storage space, resulting in a denial of service.

Red Hat Security Advisory 2014-1339-01 – OpenStack Networking is a pluggable, scalable, and API-driven system that provisions networking services to virtual machines. Its main function is to manage connectivity to and from virtual machines. As of Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform 4.0, ‘neutron’ replaces ‘quantum’ as the core component of OpenStack Networking. It was discovered that the openstack-neutron package in Red Hat Enterprise Linux Open Stack Platform 5.0 for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 was released with a sudoers file containing a configuration error. This error caused OpenStack Networking to be vulnerable to the CVE-2013-6433 issue.
