Red Hat Security Advisory 2012-1505-01 - The rhev-hypervisor6 package provides a Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Hypervisor ISO disk image. The Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Hypervisor is a dedicated Kernel-based Virtual Machine hypervisor. It includes everything necessary to run and manage virtual machines: A subset of the Red Hat Enterprise Linux operating environment and the Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Agent. Note: Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Hypervisor is only available for the Intel 64 and AMD64 architectures with virtualization extensions. A flaw was found in the way Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Hypervisor hosts were added to the Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization environment. The Python scripts needed to configure the host for Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization were downloaded in an insecure way, that is, without properly validating SSL certificates during HTTPS connections. An attacker on the local network could use this flaw to conduct a man-in-the-middle attack, potentially gaining root access to the host being added to the Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization environment. This update provides the VDSM part of the fix. The RHSA-2012:1506 Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Manager update must also be installed to completely fix this issue.
