**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions** Cobbler versions prior to 2.0.7 **Description** The issue allows remote authenticated administrators to execute arbitrary code via a crafted kickstart template file. This is due to the template api.py file not disabling the ability of the Cheetah template engine to execute Python statements contained in templates. **Recommendations** For versions prior to 2.0.7, update to version 2.0.7 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the template engine or limiting the ability to execute Python statements in templates.
