-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 ===================================================================== Red Hat Security Advisory Synopsis: Moderate: openstack-cinder security update Advisory ID: RHSA-2013:1198-01 Product: Red Hat OpenStack Advisory URL: https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2013-1198.html Issue date: 2013-09-03 CVE Names: CVE-2013-4183 CVE-2013-4202 ===================================================================== 1. Summary: Updated openstack-cinder packages that fix two security issues are now available for Red Hat OpenStack 3.0. The Red Hat Security Response Team has rated this update as having moderate 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: OpenStack 3 - noarch 3. Description: The openstack-cinder packages provide OpenStack Volume (Cinder), which provides services to manage and access block storage volumes for use by virtual machine instances. It was found that the fixes for CVE-2013-1664 and CVE-2013-1665, released via RHSA-2013:0658, did not fully correct the issues in the Extensible Markup Language (XML) parser used by Cinder. A remote attacker could use this flaw to send a specially-crafted request to a Cinder API, causing Cinder to consume an excessive amount of CPU and memory, or possibly crash. (CVE-2013-4202) A bug in the Cinder LVM driver prevented LVM snapshots from being securely deleted in some cases, potentially leading to information disclosure to other tenants. (CVE-2013-4183) The CVE-2013-4202 issue was discovered by Grant Murphy of the Red Hat Product Security Team. Additionally, openstack-cinder has been rebased to the latest Grizzly stable release 2013.1.3. (BZ#993094) All users of openstack-cinder are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which correct these issues. After installing the updated packages, the Cinder running services will be restarted automatically. 4.
