====================================================================                   Red Hat Security Advisory

Synopsis:          Important: Red Hat OpenShift Enterprise 3.2 security update and bug fix update
Advisory ID:       RHSA-2016:1853-01
Product:           Red Hat OpenShift Enterprise
Advisory URL:      Issue date:        2016-09-12
CVE Names:         CVE-2016-5418 
====================================================================
1. Summary:

An update for atomic-openshift and heapster is now available for Red Hat
OpenShift Enterprise 3.2.

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:

Red Hat OpenShift Enterprise 3.2 - noarch, x86_64

3. Description:

OpenShift Enterprise by Red Hat is the company's cloud computing Platform-
as-a-Service (PaaS) solution designed for on-premise or private cloud 
deployments.

Security Fix(es):

* When processing an archive file that contains an archive entry with type
1 (hardlink) but also having a non-zero data size a file overwrite can
occur. This would allow an attacker that can pass data to an application
that uses libarchive to unpack it to overwrite arbitrary files with
arbitrary data. (CVE-2016-5418)

Red Hat would like to thank Insomnia Security for reporting this issue.

This update also fixes the following bugs:

* Previously, pods that had a resource request of 0 and specified limits
were classified as BestEffort when they should have been classified as
Burstable. This bug fix ensures that those pods are correctly classified as
Burstable.(BZ#1357475)

* Future versions of docker will require containerized installations of
OpenShift Container Platform to mount /var/lib/origin with the `rslave`
flag. New installations of OpenShift Container Platform 3.2 have this value
set. However, upgrades from 3.1 did not properly set this value. This bug
fix ensures that this flag is now set during upgrades, ensuring that
OpenShift Container Platform works properly under future versions of
docker. (BZ#1358197)

* The PersistentVolumeLabel admission plug-in is now enabled by default.
This plug-in labels AWS and GCE volumes with their zone so the scheduler
can limit the nodes for a pod to only those in the same zone as the
persistent volumes being used by the pod. (BZ#1365600)

* Previously, heapster incorrectly generated error messages indicating that
it "Failed to find node". This bug fix corrects that error and ensures that
erroneous warnings are generated.(BZ#1366367)

* The deployment controllers' resync interval can now be configured. The
previously hard-coded 2-minute default is the likely cause of performance
regressions when thousands of deploymentconfigs are present in the system.
Increase the resync interval by setting deploymentControllerResyncMinute in
/etc/origin/master/master-config.yaml.(BZ#1366381)

* Previously, AWS-related environment variables were removed from
/etc/sysconfig/atomic-openshift-master files during an upgrade if these
values were not included in the advanced installer's inventory file. This
bug fix ensures that these variables are now preserved during upgrades.
(BZ#1370641)

* Previously, updates to the containerized atomic-openshift-node service
were not properly reloaded during upgrades. This bug fix corrects this
error and ensures that the service is reloaded during upgrades.
(BZ#1371708)

* Previously the installer did not properly configure an environment for
flannel when openshift_use_flannel was set to `true`. This bug fix corrects
those errors and the installer will now correctly deploy environments using
flannel. (BZ#1372026)
