3. Description:
OpenStack Orchestration (heat) is a template-driven engine used to specify
and deploy configurations for Compute, Storage, and OpenStack Networking.
The service can be used to automate post-deployment actions, which in turn
allows automated provisioning of infrastructure, services, and
applications. Additionally, Orchestration can be integrated with Telemetry
alarms to implement auto-scaling for certain infrastructure resources.
The following packages have been upgraded to a later upstream version:
openstack-heat (7.0.2). (BZ#1431258)
Security Fix(es):
* An access-control flaw was found in the OpenStack Orchestration (heat)
service where a service log directory was improperly made world readable. A
malicious system user could exploit this flaw to access sensitive
information. (CVE-2017-2621)
Red Hat would like to thank Hans Feldt (Ericsson) for reporting this issue.
