Description :

Cobbler is a network boot and update server.  Cobbler
supports PXE, provisioning virtualized images, and
reinstalling existing Linux machines.  The last two
modes require a helper tool called 'koan' that
integrates with cobbler.  Cobbler's advanced features
include importing distributions from DVDs and rsync
mirrors, kickstart templating, integrated yum
mirroring, and built-in DHCP/DNS Management.  Cobbler has
a Python and XMLRPC API for integration with other
applications.

Update Information:

Fixes a security vulnerability where a CobblerWeb user (if so configured) can
import a Python module via a web-edited Cheetah template and run commands as
root.
