3. Description:

OpenStack Bare Metal (ironic) is a tool used to provision bare metal (as opposed to virtual) machines. It leverages common technologies such as PXE boot and IPMI to cover a wide range of hardware. It also supports pluggable drivers to allow added, vendor-specific functionality.

It was discovered that enabling debug mode in openstack-ironic-discoverd also enabled debug mode in the underlying Flask framework. If errors were encountered while Flask was in debug mode, a user experiencing an error might be able to access the debug console (effectively, a command shell). (CVE-2015-5306)

Please note that this package is a Technology Preview and should not be used in production.

All openstack-ironic-discoverd users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which correct this issue.
