3. Description:

 

puppet-tripleo is a key component of the Red Hat OpenStack Platform

director, which is a toolset for installing and managing a complete

OpenStack environment.

 

Security Fix(es):

 

* An access-control flaw was discovered in puppet-tripleo's IPtables rules

management, which allowed the creation of TCP/UDP rules with empty port

values. Some API services in Red Hat OpenStack Platform director are not

exposed to public networks, which meant their $public_ssl_port value was

set to empty (for example, openstack-glance, which is deployed by default

on both undercloud and overcloud). If SSL was enabled, a malicious user

could use these open ports to gain access to unauthorized resources.

(CVE-2016-9599)

 

This issue was discovered by Ben Nemec (Red Hat).
