Ubuntu Security Notice 2255-1 - Darragh O'Reilly discovered that the Ubuntu packaging for OpenStack Neutron did not properly set up its sudo configuration. If a different flaw was found in OpenStack Neutron, this vulnerability could be used to escalate privileges. Stephen Ma and Christoph Thiel discovered that the openvswitch-agent in OpenStack Neutron did not properly perform input validation when creating security group rules when specifying --remote-ip-prefix. A remote authenticated attacker could exploit this to prevent application of additional rules. Various other issues were also addressed.

Its main function is to manage connectivity to and from virtual machines. As of Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform 4.0, 'neutron' replaces 'quantum' as the core component of OpenStack Networking. A flaw was found in the way OpenStack Networking performed authorization checks on created ports. An authenticated user could potentially use this flaw to create ports on a router belonging to a different tenant, allowing unauthorized access to the network of other tenants. Note that only OpenStack Networking setups using plug-ins that rely on the l3-agent were affected.
