RedHat: RHSA-2018-2715:01 Moderate: openstack-neutron security and bug fix
Summary
OpenStack Networking (neutron) is a pluggable, scalable, and API-driven
system that provisions networking services to virtual machines. Its main
function is to manage connectivity to and from virtual machines.
Security Fix(es):
* openstack-neutron: A router interface out of subnet IP range results in a
denial of service (CVE-2018-14635)
For more details about the security issue, including the impact, a CVSS
score, and other related information, refer to the CVE page listed in the
References section.
Bug Fix(es):
* A new configuration option bridge_mac_table_size has been added for the
neutron OVS agent. This value is set on every Open vSwitch bridge managed
by the openvswitch-neutron-agent. The value controls the maximum number of
MAC addresses that can be learned on a bridge. The default value for this
new option is 50,000, which should be enough for most systems. Values
outside a reasonable range (10 to 1,000,000) might be overridden by Open
vSwitch. (BZ#1589031)
* Previously, when a VM was destroyed, the IPv6 lease was not removed from
dnsmasq lease files due to a missing dhcp_release6 binary.
With this update, the dhcp_release6 binary is now provided in an updated
dnsmasq-utils package version. (BZ#1545006)
