Summary
IBM PowerVC 1.2.0.x through 1.2.0.4, 1.2.1.x through 1.2.1.2, and 1.2.2.x through 1.2.2.2 does not require authentication for the ceilometer NoSQL database, which allows remote attackers to read or write to arbitrary database records, and consequently obtain administrator privileges, via a session on port 27017.
