Problem Description:

Updated ruby193-v8 packages that fix one security issue are now available for Red Hat OpenStack 3.0.

3. Description:

V8 is Google's open source JavaScript engine.

A type confusion issue was found in the V8 JavaScript engine. An attacker could use this flaw to cause a denial of service or, potentially, execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2013-2882)
