1. Summary:

 

An update is now available for Red Hat OpenStack Platform 10.0 (Newton).

 

Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security impact

of Important. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score,

which gives a detailed severity rating, is available for each vulnerability

3. Description:

 

Red Hat OpenStack Platform director provides the facilities for deploying

and monitoring a private or public infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS) cloud

based on Red Hat OpenStack Platform.

 

Security Fix(es):

 

* A design flaw issue was found in the Red Hat OpenStack Platform director

use of TripleO to enable libvirtd based live-migration. Libvirtd is

deployed by default (by director) listening on 0.0.0.0 (all interfaces)

with no-authentication or encryption. Anyone able to make a TCP connection

to any compute host IP address, including 127.0.0.1, other loopback

interface addresses, or in some cases possibly addresses that have been

exposed beyond the management interface, could use this to open a virsh

session to the libvirtd instance and gain control of virtual machine

instances or possibly take over the host. (CVE-2017-2637)

This issue was discovered by David Gurtner (Red Hat).
