3. Description:

 

Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform is the company's cloud computing

Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) solution designed for on-premise or private

cloud deployments.

 

Security Fix(es):

 

* A regular expression denial of service flaw was found in Tough-Cookie. An

attacker able to make an application using Touch-Cookie to parse a

sufficiently large HTTP request Cookie header could cause the application

to consume an excessive amount of CPU. (CVE-2016-1000232)

 

* It was found that the reason argument in ServerResponse#writeHead() was

not properly validated. A remote attacker could possibly use this flaw to

conduct an HTTP response splitting attack via a specially-crafted HTTP

request. (CVE-2016-5325)
