-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 ===================================================================== Red Hat Security Advisory Synopsis: Moderate: openstack-nova security and bug fix advisory Advisory ID: RHSA-2016:0013-01 Product: Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform Advisory URL: https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2016-0013.html Issue date: 2016-01-07 CVE Names: CVE-2015-7713 ===================================================================== 1. Summary: Updated openstack-nova packages that fix one security issue and various bugs are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform 6.0. Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having Moderate security impact. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available from the CVE link in the References section. 2. Relevant releases/architectures: Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform 6.0 for RHEL 7 - noarch 3. Description: OpenStack Compute (nova) launches and schedules large networks of virtual machines, creating a redundant and scalable cloud computing platform. Compute provides the software, control panels, and APIs required to orchestrate a cloud, including running virtual machine instances and controlling access through users and projects. A vulnerability was discovered in the way OpenStack Compute (nova) networking handled security group updates; changes were not applied to already running VM instances. A remote attacker could use this flaw to access running VM instances. (CVE-2015-7713) Additional bug fixes include: * Suspending an instance with a pre-created port that uses binding:vnic_type='direct' previously failed; this has been fixed with an update to the API.(BZ#1196054) * When using multipath-backed volumes using Object Storage (cinder), attach attempts failed without error. The handling of device identifiers has been updated and volumes can now be attached. (BZ#1206699) * Previously, OpenStack Compute did not conform to PEP8 conventions; this has been fixed. (BZ#1278411) * With a faulty lun in a multipath device, Compute tried to use the wrong device. Compute now uses the correct device, and instances can boot normally. (BZ#1280359) * When using a FCoE adapter instead of a FC adapter, volumes previously failed to attach to the VM. This issue has been fixed. (BZ#1284033) All openstack-nova users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which correct these issues and add these enhancements. 4. Solution: Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata relevant to your system have been applied.
