=====================================================================

1. Summary:

An update for imgbased, redhat-release-virtualization-host, and
redhat-virtualization-host is now available for Red Hat Virtualization 4
for RHEL-7.

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
from the CVE link(s) in the References section.

2. Relevant releases/architectures:

RHEL 7-based RHEV-H for RHEV 4 (build requirements) - noarch, x86_64
Red Hat Virtualization 4 Hypervisor for RHEL 7 - noarch

3. Description:

The redhat-virtualization-host packages provide the Red Hat Virtualization
Host. These packages include redhat-release-virtualization-host,
ovirt-node, and rhev-hypervisor. Red Hat Virtualization Hosts (RHVH) are
installed using a special build of Red Hat Enterprise Linux with only the
packages required to host virtual machines. RHVH features a Cockpit user
interface for monitoring the host's resources and performing administrative
tasks.

Security Fix(es):

* procps-ng, procps: Integer overflows leading to heap overflow in
file2strvec (CVE-2018-1124)

* procps-ng, procps: incorrect integer size in proc/alloc.* leading to
truncation / integer overflow issues (CVE-2018-1126)

For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS
score, and other related information, refer to the CVE page(s) listed in
the References section.

Red Hat would like to thank Qualys Research Labs for reporting these
issues.

Bug Fix(es):

* Previously some SELinux %post scripts were not re-executed because
imgbased attempts to re-execute RPM %post scripts which involve SELinux
commands inside a namespace, and some commands failed due to SELinux
namespacing rules.

This update ensures that SELinux contexts inside imgbased update namespaces
now update appropriately, and the scripts are re-executed by remounting
/sys and /sys/fs/selinux inside the update namespace. (BZ#1571607)

* Previously, vmcore files that were created by kdump were not relabelled
by kdumpctl after a reboot. As a result, Rsync returned an error when
trying to remove the security.selinux attribute while syncing unlabelled
files, as this is forbidden by selinux.

In this release, restorecon is run on the source directory before syncing
it, which enables the files to be synchronized with the correct labels.
(BZ#1579141)

Enhancement(s):

* Previously, imgbased filtered out stderr from LVM commands to improve
parsing reliability. In this release, imgbased now logs stderr from LVM
commands in order to provide this information in the imgbased logs, for
example during an upgrade failure. (BZ#1574187)
