It was found that Satellite 5 configured with SSL/TLS for the PostgreSQL backend failed to correctly validate X.509 server certificate host name fields. A man-in-the-middle attacker could use this flaw to spoof a PostgreSQL server using a specially crafted X.509 certificate.

Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in spacewalk-java 2.0.2 in Spacewalk and Red Hat Network (RHN) Satellite 5.5 and 5.6 allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via unspecified vectors to (1) kickstart/cobbler/CustomSnippetList.do, (2) channels/software/Entitlements.do, or (3) admin/multiorg/OrgUsers.do.

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in spacewalk-java 1.2.39, 1.7.54, and 2.0.2 in Spacewalk and Red Hat Network (RHN) Satellite 5.4 through 5.6 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via a crafted request that is not properly handled when logging.

Red Hat Satellite 5.6 and earlier does not disable the web interface that is used to create the first user for a satellite, which allows remote attackers to create administrator accounts.

The Inter-Satellite Sync (ISS) operation in Red Hat Network (RHN) Satellite 5.3, 5.4, and 5.5 does not properly check client "authenticity," which allows remote attackers to obtain channel content by skipping the initial authentication call.

Unspecified vulnerability in the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) component in Oracle Java SE 7 update 4 and earlier, 6 update 32 and earlier, 5 update 35 and earlier, and 1.4.2_37 and earlier allows local users to affect confidentiality via unknown vectors related to printing on Solaris or Linux.
