Red Hat Security Advisory 2017-1243-01 - OpenStack Orchestration is a template-driven engine used to specify and deploy configurations for Compute, Storage, and OpenStack Networking. The service can be used to automate post-deployment actions, which in turn allows automated provisioning of infrastructure, services, and applications. Additionally, Orchestration can be integrated with Telemetry alarms to implement auto-scaling for certain infrastructure resources. The following packages have been upgraded to a later upstream version: openstack-heat. Multiple security issues have been addressed.
