Security readout for executives and security teams

This flaw exposed sensitive MCollective client configuration data on certain Red Hat OpenShift Enterprise broker systems. A local user on an affected host could read a world-readable client.cfg file and obtain credentials or other secrets. The source bundle does not provide a CVSS score. Exposure appears limited to affected Red Hat OpenShift Enterprise 1.2.7 and 2.0.5 systems where local users can access broker host files. Internet-facing exploitation is not indicated by the provided sources. Prioritize remediation for legacy OpenShift broker hosts with multiple local users or sensitive MCollective credentials. The risk is not described as remotely exploitable, but credential exposure can enable broader operational compromise. Mitigation focus: Review RHSA-2014:0460 and RHSA-2014:0461 for Red Hat-supported remediation.; Apply Red Hat-provided updates or configuration guidance for the deployed OpenShift version.; Treat mcollective client.cfg contents as exposed until permissions and access history are verified..
