http://support.citrix.com/article/CTX135815

Citrix CloudPlatform Multiple Security Updates

A number of security vulnerabilities have been identified in Citrix CloudPlatform, formerly known as CloudStack. These vulnerabilities have been assigned the following CVE numbers:
  • CVE-2013-2756: Console proxy authentication bypass vulnerability

  • CVE-2013-2757: Unauthenticated VNC ports available on the management network

  • CVE-2013-2758: Console proxy URLs may contain sensitive information

These vulnerabilities affect all versions of CloudPlatform 3.0.x up to and including 3.0.6 with patch B applied when deployed with XenServer, other Xen hypervisors or KVM.

What Customers Should Do

A security patch has been released to address these issues. Citrix strongly recommends that all affected customers upgrade to version 3.0.6 of Citrix CloudPlatform and apply this patch. This patch can be downloaded from the following locations:

Citrix CloudPlatform:

RedHat Enterprise Linux 5: CTX137279 – CloudPlatform 3.0.6 PatchC - RHEL 5

RedHat Enterprise Linux 6.2: CTX137280 – CloudPlatform 3.0.6 PatchC - RHEL 6.2

RedHat Enterprise Linux 6.3: CTX137281 – CloudPlatform 3.0.6 PatchC (RHEL 6.3)

Customers using Citrix CloudStack 2.2.x, or CloudPlatform 3.0.x that cannot upgrade to 3.0.6, should contact their Citrix Customer Support representative for further information. Customers upgrading from affected versions of CloudPlatform should ensure that all hypervisors are appropriately configured for the new version of CloudPlatform.

Citrix also recommends that customers consider making the following changes to their CloudPlatform deployments:

  • Customers should avoid the use of realhostip.com SSL certificates for production environments. Please see Citrix Knowledge Center article CTX133468 – How to Replace realhostip.com with Your Own Domain Name for further information on how to configure your CloudPlatform deployment.

  • In line with best practice, customers should ensure that the CloudPlatform management network is segregated from all other traffic.
