Red Hat Security Advisory

 

Synopsis: Moderate: openstack-nova security update

Advisory ID: RHSA-2015:1898-01

Product: Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform

Advisory URL: https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2015-1898.html

Issue date: 2015-10-15

CVE Names: CVE-2015-3241 CVE-2015-3280

=====================================================================

 

1. Summary:

 

Updated openstack-nova packages that fix one security issue and several

bugs, and add various enhancements are now available for Red Hat

Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform 5.0, 6.0, and 7.0

 

Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having Moderate security

impact. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which

gives a detailed severity rating, is available from the CVE link in the

References section.

 

2. Relevant releases/architectures:

 

Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform 5.0 for RHEL 6 - noarch

Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform 5.0 for RHEL 7 - noarch

Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform 6.0 for RHEL 7 - noarch

Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform 7.0 for RHEL 7 - noarch

 

3. Description:

 

OpenStack Compute (nova) launches and schedules large networks of virtual

machines, creating a redundant and scalable cloud computing platform.

Compute provides the software, control panels, and APIs required to

orchestrate a cloud, including running virtual machine instances and

controlling access through users and projects.

 

A denial of service flaw was found in the OpenStack Compute instance

migration process. Because the migration process does not terminate

when an instance is deleted, an authenticated user could bypass

user quota and deplete all available disk space by repeatedly re-sizing

and deleting an instance. (CVE-2015-3241)

 

A flaw was found in the way OpenStack Compute handled the resize

state. If an authenticated user deleted an instance while it was in the

resize state, it could cause the original instance to not be deleted from

the compute node it was running on, allowing the user to cause a denial

of service. (CVE-2015-3280)

 

Note: CVE-2015-3241 was already addressed in Red Hat Enterprise Linux

OpenStack Platform 7.0 in a previous release.

 

Red Hat would like to thank the OpenStack project for reporting these

issues. Upstream acknowledges George Shuklin of Webzilla LTD as the

original reporter of CVE-2015-3241, and George Shuklin from Webzilla LTD

and Tushar Patil from NTT DATA, Inc. as the original reporters of

CVE-2015-3280.

 

All openstack-nova users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages,

which correct these issues and add these enhancements.
