Red Hat Security Advisory 2014-0816-01 - Red Hat CloudForms Management Engine delivers the insight, control, and automation needed to address the challenges of managing virtual environments. CloudForms Management Engine is built on Ruby on Rails, a model-view-controller framework for web application development. Action Pack implements the controller and the view components. The SSH utility script created a world-writable file in /tmp/ using a predictable name, and then executed it as root.

A remote attacker could use this flaw to retrieve arbitrary local files accessible to a Ruby on Rails application using the aforementioned routes via a specially crafted request.
