Detail
| Problem Description: Updated openstack-nova packages that fix one security issue are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform 5.0 (Icehouse) for RHEL 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. An information-exposure flaw was found in the OpenStack Compute (nova) resize and migrate functionality. An authenticated user could write a malicious qcow header to an ephemeral or root disk, referencing a block device as a backing file. With a subsequent resize or migration, file system content on the specified device would be leaked to the user. Only setups using libvirt with raw storage and "use_cow_images = False" were affected. (CVE-2016-2140) This issue was discovered by Matthew Booth of Red Hat. All openstack-nova users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which correct this issue. 4. Solution: Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata relevant to your system have been applied.
