A flaw was found in the CloudForms web interface, versions 5.8 - 5.10, where the RSS feed URLs are not properly restricted to authenticated users only. An attacker could use this flaw to view potentially sensitive information from CloudForms including data such as newly created virtual machines.

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2017-15123 lets unauthenticated users view RSS feed information from Red Hat CloudForms 5.8 through 5.10. The exposed data may include sensitive operational details such as newly created virtual machines. This is mainly a confidentiality issue, not code execution or service outage. Likely exposed organizations run Red Hat CloudForms 5.8-5.10 with the web interface or RSS feeds reachable by untrusted users. Exposure is lower when CloudForms is isolated behind trusted administrative networks and all feed access requires authenticated sessions. Prioritize remediation when CloudForms manages sensitive infrastructure or is reachable beyond a small administrator group. The issue can leak useful operational intelligence, but source evidence supports a moderate confidentiality risk rather than emergency response. Mitigation focus: Check Red Hat guidance for fixed versions, errata, or supported upgrade paths.; Restrict CloudForms web interface access to trusted administrative networks.; Confirm RSS feed URLs require authentication before returning operational data..
