An access-control flaw was found in the Octavia service when the cloud platform was deployed using Red Hat OpenStack Platform Director. An attacker could cause new amphorae to run based on any arbitrary image. This meant that a remote attacker could upload a new amphorae image and, if requested to spawn new amphorae, Octavia would then pick up the compromised image.

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

  - An access-control flaw was found in the Octavia service when the cloud platform was deployed using Red Hat
    OpenStack Platform Director. An attacker could cause new amphorae to run based on any arbitrary image.
    This meant that a remote attacker could upload a new amphorae image and, if requested to spawn new
    amphorae, Octavia would then pick up the compromised image. (CVE-2019-3895)

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

  - An access-control flaw was found in the Octavia service when the cloud platform was deployed using Red Hat     OpenStack Platform Director. An attacker could cause new amphorae to run based on any arbitrary image.
    This meant that a remote attacker could upload a new amphorae image and, if requested to spawn new     amphorae, Octavia would then pick up the compromised image. (CVE-2019-3895)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 7 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the RHSA-2019:1742 advisory.

    openstack-tripleo-common contains the python library for code common to the Red Hat OpenStack Platform     director CLI and GUI (codename tripleo).

    Security Fix(es):

    * openstack-tripleo-common: Allows running new amphorae based on arbitrary images (CVE-2019-3895)

    For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS score, acknowledgments, and     other related information, refer to the CVE page(s) listed in the References section.

    Bug Fix(es):

    * Introspection of baremetal nodes fail with 'No hypervisor matching' problem when node name used instead     of uuid (BZ#1677016)

    * config-download backports from RHOSP 14 to RHOSP 13 (openstack-tripleo-common) (BZ#1688461)

    * RHOSP-13 Connection reset by peer: libvirtError: operation failed: Failed to connect to remote libvirt     URI  # Live Migration failure: operation failed: Failed to connect to remote libvirt URI (BZ#1712410)

    * There are two new CLI arguments you can use with `config-download`:
     - Monitor the deployment in a separate CLI session or with the API with `openstack overcloud status`.
     - Log and save Ansible errors for future analysis with `openstack overcloud failures`. (BZ#1688461)
