NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream foreman-cli package and not the foreman-cli package as distributed by RHEL.
See How to fix? for RHEL:7 relevant fixed versions and status.
foreman before version 1.15.0 is vulnerable to an information leak through organizations and locations feature. When a user is assigned no organizations/locations, they are able to view all resources instead of none (mirroring an administrator's view). The user's actions are still limited by their assigned permissions, e.g. to control viewing, editing and deletion.
