Security readout for executives and security teams
CVE-2013-1885 is a cross-site scripting issue in the web component of Red Hat Certificate System token processing. A crafted request path could cause a user's browser to run attacker-supplied script or HTML in that system's context, creating risk around administrative sessions and sensitive certificate operations. Exposure is most likely where RHCS 8.1 pki-tps, or possibly Dogtag TPS 9 or 10, is deployed and its web interface is reachable by untrusted users. Publicly exposed or broadly accessible certificate-management portals carry higher business risk. Treat this as a targeted legacy-platform risk. It is not supported as actively exploited here, but certificate and token systems are sensitive. Address internet-facing or administrator-accessible RHCS/TPS deployments first, especially if they are legacy and difficult to monitor. Mitigation focus: Review and apply Red Hat RHSA-2013:0856 guidance for affected RHCS deployments.; Check Dogtag project or vendor guidance before assuming Dogtag 9 or 10 status.; Restrict access to TPS web interfaces to trusted administrative networks..
