A flaw was found in Hibernate ORM in versions before 5.3.18, 5.4.18 and 5.5.0.Beta1. A SQL injection in the implementation of the JPA Criteria API can permit unsanitized literals when a literal is used in the SELECT or GROUP BY parts of the query. This flaw could allow an attacker to access unauthorized information or possibly conduct further attacks.

Google Guava versions 11.0 through 24.1 are vulnerable to unbounded memory allocation in the AtomicDoubleArray class (when serialized with Java serialization) and Compound Ordering class (when serialized with GWT serialization). An attacker could exploit applications that use Guava and deserialize untrusted data to cause a denial of service.

A vulnerability was found in Nova Compute resource fault handling. If an API request from an authenticateduser ends in a fault condition due to an external exception, details of the underlying environment may be leaked in the response and could include sensitive configuration or other data.

An issue was discovered in the iptables firewall module in OpenStack Neutron before 10.0.8, 11.x before 11.0.7, 12.x before 12.0.6, and 13.x before 13.0.3. By setting a destination port in a security group rule along with a protocol that doesn't support that option (for example, VRRP), an authenticated user may block further application of security group rules for instances from any project/tenant on the compute hosts to which it's applied. (Only deployments using the iptables security group driver are affected.)

A flaw was found in openstack-neutron. When merging port ranges, the code never assumed the conjunction ID might not be present in the set due to already being removed. This can lead to server crash and denial of service.

A race-condition flaw was discovered in openstack-neutron before 7.2.0-12.1, 8.x before 8.3.0-11.1, 9.x before 9.3.1-2.1, and 10.x before 10.0.2-1.1, where, following a minor overcloud update, neutron security groups were disabled. Specifically, the following were reset to 0: net.bridge.bridge-nf-call-ip6tables and net.bridge.bridge-nf-call-iptables. The race was only triggered by an update, at which point an attacker could access exposed tenant VMs and network resources.

A vulnerability was found in Red Hat Ceph Storage 4 and Red Hat Openshift Container Storage 4.2 where, A nonce reuse vulnerability was discovered in the secure mode of the messenger v2 protocol, which can allow an attacker to forge auth tags and potentially manipulate the data by leveraging the reuse of a nonce in a session. Messages encrypted using a reused nonce value are susceptible to serious confidentiality and integrity attacks.

A flaw was found in the Ansible Engine when the fetch module is used. An attacker could intercept the module, inject a new path, and then choose a new destination path on the controller node. All versions in 2.7.x, 2.8.x and 2.9.x branches are believed to be vulnerable.

A flaw was found in Ansible Engine when using Ansible Vault for editing encrypted files. When a user executes "ansible-vault edit", another user on the same computer can read the old and new secret, as it is created in a temporary file with mkstemp and the returned file descriptor is closed and the method writedata is called to write the existing secret in the file. This method will delete the file before recreating it insecurely.

A race condition flaw was found in Ansible Engine 2.7.17 and prior, 2.8.9 and prior, 2.9.6 and prior when running a playbook with an unprivileged become user. When Ansible needs to run a module with become user, the temporary directory is created in /var/tmp. This directory is created with "umask 77 && mkdir -p <dir>"; this operation does not fail if the directory already exists and is owned by another user. An attacker could take advantage to gain control of the become user as the target directory can be retrieved by iterating '/proc/<pid>/cmdline'.

A NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in the Linux kernel's SELinux subsystem in versions before 5.7. This flaw occurs while importing the Commercial IP Security Option (CIPSO) protocol's category bitmap into the SELinux extensible bitmap via the' ebitmapnetlblimport' routine. While processing the CIPSO restricted bitmap tag in the 'cipsov4parsetagrbm' routine, it sets the security attribute to indicate that the category bitmap is present, even if it has not been allocated. This issue leads to a NULL pointer dereference issue while importing the same category bitmap into SELinux. This flaw allows a remote network user to crash the system kernel, resulting in a denial of service.

An issue was discovered in Django 2.0 before 2.0.3, 1.11 before 1.11.11, and 1.8 before 1.8.19. The django.utils.html.urlize() function was extremely slow to evaluate certain inputs due to catastrophic backtracking vulnerabilities in two regular expressions (only one regular expression for Django 1.8.x). The urlize() function is used to implement the urlize and urlizetrunc template filters, which were thus vulnerable.

An industry-wide issue was found in the way many modern microprocessor designs have implemented speculative execution of Load & Store instructions (a commonly used performance optimization).

It relies on the presence of a precisely-defined instruction sequence in the privileged code as well as the fact that memory read from address to which a recent memory write has occurred may see an older value and subsequently cause an update into the microprocessor's data cache even for speculatively executed instructions that never actually commit (retire).

As a result, an unprivileged attacker could use this flaw to read privileged memory by conducting targeted cache side-channel attacks.

An issue was discovered in Open vSwitch (OvS) 2.7.x through 2.7.6. The decodebundle function inside lib/ofp-actions.c is affected by a buffer over-read issue during BUNDLE action decoding.

An issue was discovered in Open vSwitch (OvS) 2.7.x through 2.7.6, affecting parsegrouppropntrselectionmethod in lib/ofp-util.c. When decoding a group mod, it validates the group type and command after the whole group mod has been decoded. The OF1.5 decoder, however, tries to use the type and command earlier, when it might still be invalid. This causes an assertion failure (via OVSNOTREACHED). ovs-vswitchd does not enable support for OpenFlow 1.5 by default.

Quick emulator(Qemu) built with the USB xHCI controller emulator support is vulnerable to an infinite loop issue. It could occur while processing control transfer descriptors' sequence in xhcikickepctx.

A privileged user inside guest could use this flaw to crash the Qemu process resulting in DoS.

PackStack in Red Hat OpenStack 4.0 does not enforce the default security groups when deployed to Neutron, which allows remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions and make unauthorized connections.

The python-qpid client (common/rpc/implqpid.py) in OpenStack Oslo before 2013.2 does not enforce SSL connections when qpidprotocol is set to ssl, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information by sniffing the network.

A heap-based buffer overflow flaw was found in the way libyaml parsed YAML tags. A remote attacker could provide a specially-crafted YAML document that, when parsed by an application using libyaml, would cause the application to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the application.

This issue was discovered by Florian Weimer of the Red Hat Product Security Team.

The ec2tokens API in OpenStack Identity (Keystone) before Havana 2013.2.1 and Icehouse before icehouse-2 does not return a trust-scoped token when one is received, which allows remote trust users to gain privileges by generating EC2 credentials from a trust-scoped token and using them in an ec2tokens API request.

It was discovered that Qpid authentication was disabled by default in the standalone controller quickstack manifest. If this was used in a production system without change then anyone able to make a TCP connection to Qpid would have unauthenticated access to any OpenStack backends using Qpid (such as Nova).

An out-of-bounds read vulnerability in function icmp6sendechoreply() in ip6icmp.c of libslirp could allow a guest user/process to leak contents of the host memory, leading to possible information disclosure.

A flaw was found in Keystone. There is a time lag (up to one hour in a default configuration) between when security policy says a token should be revoked from when it is actually revoked. This could allow a remote administrator to secretly maintain access for longer than expected.

A flaw was found in Ansible Engine's ansible-connection module, where sensitive information such as the Ansible user credentials is disclosed by default in the traceback error message. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to confidentiality.

Beth Lancaster and Brandon Sawyers from Virginia Tech reported a vulnerability in Horizon. By injecting Angularjs template in dashboard forms, such as image's description, an authenticated user may trigger a cross-site-scripting vulnerability when another user browses the affected pages. It may result in potential assets theft like user access credentials. All Horizon setups are affected.

A flaw was found in the Red Hat Ceph Storage RadosGW (Ceph Object Gateway). The vulnerability is related to the injection of HTTP headers via a CORS ExposeHeader tag. The newline character in the ExposeHeader tag in the CORS configuration file generates a header injection in the response when the CORS request is made. Ceph versions 3.x and 4.x are vulnerable to this issue.
