Advisory ID: RHSA-2016:2670-01
Product: Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform
Advisory URL: https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2016-2670.html
Issue date: 2016-11-07
CVE Names: CVE-2015-8817 CVE-2015-8818
=====================================================================
1. Summary:
An update for qemu-kvm-rhev is now available for Red Hat OpenStack Platform
8.0 (Liberty).
Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security impact
of Moderate. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which
gives a detailed severity rating, is available for each vulnerability from
the CVE link(s) in the References section.
2. Relevant releases/architectures:
Red Hat OpenStack Platform 8.0 (Liberty) - x86_64
3. Description:
KVM (Kernel-based Virtual Machine) is a full virtualization solution for
Linux on AMD64 and Intel 64 systems. The qemu-kvm-rhev package provides the
user-space component for running virtual machines using KVM in environments
managed by Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Manager.
The following packages have been upgraded to a newer upstream version:
qemu-kvm-rhev (2.6.0). (BZ#1386383)
Security Fix(es):
* An out-of-bounds flaw was found in the QEMU emulator built using
'address_space_translate' to map an address to a MemoryRegionSection. The
flaw could occur while doing pci_dma_read/write calls, resulting in an
out-of-bounds read-write access error. A privileged user inside a guest
could use this flaw to crash the guest instance (denial of service).
(CVE-2015-8817, CVE-2015-8818)
Red Hat would like to thank Donghai Zdh of Alibaba Inc. for reporting this
issue.
