Red Hat Security Advisory 2017-2447-01
Posted Aug 8, 2017
Authored by Red Hat | Site access.redhat.com

Red Hat Security Advisory 2017-2447-01 - OpenStack Networking is a pluggable, scalable, and API-driven system that provisions networking services to virtual machines. Its main function is to manage connectivity to and from virtual machines. Security Fix: A race-condition flaw was discovered in openstack-neutron where, following a minor overcloud update, neutron security groups were disabled. Specifically, the following were reset to 0: net.bridge.bridge-nf-call-arptables, net.bridge.bridge-nf-call-ip6tables, and net.bridge.bridge-nf-call-iptables. The race was only triggered by an update, at which point an attacker could access exposed tenant VMs and network resources.
