by Tristan Cacqueray 18 Jun '14

18 Jun '14

OpenStack Security Advisory: 2014-019 CVE: CVE-2014-4167 Date: June 18, 2014 Title: Neutron L3-agent DoS through IPv6 subnet Reporter: Thiago Martins (HP) Products: Neutron Versions: up to 2013.2.3, and 2014.1 Description: Thiago Martins from Hewlett Packard reported a vulnerability in Neutron L3-agent. By creating an IPv6 private subnet attached to a L3 router, an authenticated user may break the L3-agent, preventing further floating IPv4 addresses from being attached for the entire cloud. Note: removal of the faulty network can not be done using the API and must be cleaned at the database level. Only Neutron setups using IPv6 and L3-agent are affected. Juno (development branch) fix: https://review.openstack.org/88584 Icehouse fix: https://review.openstack.org/95938 Havana fix: https://review.openstack.org/95939 Notes: This fix will be included in the Juno-2 development milestone and in future 2013.2.4 and 2014.1.2 releases.

13 Jun '14

OpenStack Security Advisory: 2014-018 CVE: CVE-2014-3476 Date: June 12, 2014 Title: Keystone privilege escalation through trust chained delegation Reporter: Steven Hardy (Red Hat) Products: Keystone Versions: up to 2013.2.3, and 2014.1 to 2014.1.1 Description: Steven Hardy from Red Hat reported a vulnerability in Keystone chained delegation. By creating a delegation from a trust or OAuth token, a trustee may abuse the identity impersonation against keystone and circumvent the enforced scope, resulting in potential elevated privileges to any of the trustor's projects and or roles. All Keystone deployments configured to enable trusts are affected, which has been the default since Grizzly. Juno (development branch) fix: https://review.openstack.org/99687 Icehouse fix: https://review.openstack.org/99700 Havana fix: https://review.openstack.org/99703 Notes: This fix will be included in the Juno-2 development milestone and in future 2013.2.4 and 2014.1.2 releases.

Juno-1 development milestone available
by Thierry Carrez 12 Jun '14

12 Jun '14

Hi everyone, The first milestone of the Juno development cycle, "juno-1" is now available for Keystone, Glance, Nova, Horizon, Neutron, Cinder, Ceilometer, Heat, Trove, and Sahara. It contains all the new features that have been added since the Icehouse Feature Freeze in March. You can find the full list of new features and fixed bugs, as well as tarball downloads, at: https://launchpad.net/keystone/juno/juno-1 https://launchpad.net/glance/juno/juno-1 https://launchpad.net/nova/juno/juno-1 https://launchpad.net/horizon/juno/juno-1 https://launchpad.net/neutron/juno/juno-1 https://launchpad.net/cinder/juno/juno-1 https://launchpad.net/ceilometer/juno/juno-1 https://launchpad.net/heat/juno/juno-1 https://launchpad.net/trove/juno/juno-1 https://launchpad.net/sahara/juno/juno-1 Including the oslo libraries, 51 blueprints were implemented and no less than 910 bugs were fixed during this milestone. The relatively-low number of features implemented in this milestone can be explained by the recent switch, for most of our integrated projects, to a more formal upfront review of feature design. The next development milestone, juno-2, is scheduled for July 24th.
