NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream koan package and not the koan package as distributed by Centos.

An issue was discovered in Cobbler before 3.3.1. In the templar.py file, the function check_for_invalid_imports can allow Cheetah code to import Python modules via the "#from MODULE import" substring. (Only lines beginning with #import are blocked.)
