security advisorydenial of servicesecurity updateRed Hat: RHSA-2015:1898-01 Moderate: OpenStack-Nova DoS Update
Updated openstack-nova packages that fix one security issue and several bugs, and add various enhancements are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform 5.0, 6.0, and 7.0 [More...]. ==================================================================== Red Hat Security Advisory Synopsis: Moderate: openstack-nova security update Advisory ID: RHSA-2015:1898-01 Product: Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform Advisory URL: https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2015:1898.html Issue date: 2015-10-15 CVE Names: CVE-2015-3241 CVE-2015-3280 ==================================================================== 1. Summary: Updated openstack-nova packages that fix one security issue and several bugs, and add various enhancements are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform 5.0, 6.0, and 7.0 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 5.0 for RHEL 6 - noarch Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform 5.0 for RHEL 7 - noarch Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform 6.0 for RHEL 7 - noarch Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform 7.0 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 denial of service flaw was found in the OpenStack Compute instance migration process. Because the migration process does not terminate when an instance is deleted, an authenticated user could bypass user quota and deplete all available disk spaceby repeatedly re-sizing and deleting an instance. (CVE-2015-3241) A flaw was found in the way OpenStack Compute handled the resize state. If an authenticated user deleted an instance while it was in the resize state, it could cause the original instance to not be deleted from the compute node it was running on, allowing the user to cause a denial of service. (CVE-2015-3280) Note: CVE-2015-3241 was already addressed in Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform 7.0 in a previous release. Red Hat would like to thank the OpenStack project for reporting these issues. Upstream acknowledges George Shuklin of Webzilla LTD as the original reporter of CVE-2015-3241, and George Shuklin from Webzilla LTD and Tushar Patil from NTT DATA, Inc. as the original reporters of CVE-2015-3280. 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. For details on how to apply this update, refer to: https://access.redhat.com/articles/11258 5.

security advisorydenial of servicesecurity fixRed Hat: RHSA-2015-0844-01 Important: OpenStack Compute Security Update
Updated OpenStack Compute (nova) packages that fix three security issues, several bugs, and add various enhancements are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform 5.0 for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6. Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having Important security. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 ==================================================================== Red Hat Security Advisory Synopsis: Important: openstack-nova security, bug fix, and enhancement update Advisory ID: RHSA-2015:0844-01 Product: Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform Advisory URL: https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2015:0844.html Issue date: 2015-04-16 CVE Names: CVE-2014-3708 CVE-2014-8333 CVE-2015-0259 ==================================================================== 1. Summary: Updated OpenStack Compute (nova) packages that fix three security issues, several bugs, and add various enhancements are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform 5.0 for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6. Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having Important security impact. Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base scores, which give detailed severity ratings, are available for each vulnerability from the CVE links in the References section. 2. Relevant releases/architectures: Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform 5.0 for RHEL 6 - 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. It was discovered that the OpenStack Compute (nova) console websocket did not correctly verify the origin header. An attacker could use this flaw to conduct a cross-site websocket hijack attack. Note that only Computesetups with VNC or SPICE enabled were affected by this flaw. (CVE-2015-0259) A denial of service flaw was found in the way OpenStack Compute (nova) looked up VM instances based on an IP address filter. An attacker with sufficient privileges on an OpenStack installation with a large amount of VMs could use this flaw to cause the main nova process to block for an extended amount of time. (CVE-2014-3708) A flaw was found in the OpenStack Compute (nova) VMWare driver, which could allow an authenticated user to delete an instance while it was in the resize state, causing the instance to remain on the back end. A malicious user could use this flaw to cause a denial of service by exhausting all available resources on the system. (CVE-2014-8333) Red Hat would like to thank the OpenStack project for reporting the CVE-2015-0259 and CVE-2014-3708 issues. Upstream acknowledges Brian Manifold of Cisco and Paul McMillan of Nebula as the original reporters of CVE-2015-0259, and Mohammed Naser from Vexxhost as the original reporter of CVE-2014-3708. In addition to the above issues, this update also addresses several bugs and adds various enhancements, which are documented in the Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform Technical Notes (see References section). 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, ensure all previously released errata relevant to your system have been applied. Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform 5 for RHEL 6 runs on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.6. The Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform 5 for RHEL 6 Release Notes (see References section) contain the following: * An explanation of the way in which the provided components interact to form a working cloud computing environment. * Technology Previews, Recommended Practices, and Known Issues. * The channels required for Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform 5 for RHEL 6, including which channels need tobe enabled and disabled.
