This presents a security risk becaues it allows for privilege > escallation attacks. First, if the unauthenticated API is listening on the > network (instead of locally) then any user on the network can reset admin > passwords. If, the API is only listening locally, then any user with access > to the local box can resset admin passwords. This would allow them to access > other hosts within the cloudstack deployment. > While it may be important to provide a recovery mechanism for admin passwords > that have been lost or hyjacked, such a solution needs to be secure. We > should either remove this feature from the Unauthenticated API, or provide a > solution that is less open to abuse. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.15#6346)
