CVE-2017-2632
A logic error in valid_role() in CloudForms role validation before 5.7.1.3 could allow a tenant administrator to create groups with a higher privilege level than the tenant administrator should have.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.45%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
Description
A logic error in valid_role() in CloudForms role validation before 5.7.1.3 could allow a tenant administrator to create groups with a higher privilege level than the tenant administrator should have. This would allow an attacker with tenant administration access to elevate privileges.
