Red Hat OpenShift Enterprise before 2.2 does not properly restrict access to gears, which allows remote attackers to access the network resources of arbitrary gears via unspecified vectors.

Red Hat OpenShift Enterprise before 2.2 allows local users to obtain IP address and port number information for remote systems by reading /proc/net/tcp.

cartridgerepository.rb in OpenShift Origin and Enterprise 1.2.8 through 2.1.1 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via shell metacharacters in a Source-Url ending with a (1) .tar.gz, (2) .zip, (3) .tgz, or (4) .tar file extension in a cartridge manifest file.

Jeremy Choi of Red Hat reports:

Attackers, with normal user privilege, are able to do OS command injection with root by leveraging a downloadable cartridge where its source-URL scheme is 'file'.

In cartridgerepository.rb:

532 when 'file' == uri.scheme 533 entries = Dir.glob(PathUtils.join(uri.path, ''), File::FNMDO TMATCH) 534 filesystemcopy(entries, target, %w(. ..)) ... 609 Utils.oospawn("/bin/cp -ad #{entries.join(' ')} #{target}", 610 expectedexitstatus: 0)

OpenShift Origin copies the directory structure from the user specified cartridge when an application is created via 'file' scheme source. Due to this attackers are able to add an arbitrary directory with system commands (e.g. ;reboot;) in their apps and put it to cp, resulting in OS command injection attack with root privileges.
