CVE-2019-9735
Description
A validation flaw was discovered in the iptables firewall module in OpenStack Neutron. By setting a destination port in a security group rule, along with a protocol that does not support that option (for example, VRRP), an authenticated user could block further application of security group rules for instances from any project or tenant on the compute hosts to which it's applied. Only OpenStack deployments that use the iptables security group driver are affected.
Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) Score Details
Info alert:Important note
CVSS scores for open source components depend on vendor-specific factors (e.g. version or build chain). Therefore, Red Hat's score and impact rating can be different from NVD and other vendors. Red Hat remains the authoritative CVE Naming Authority (CNA) source for its products and services (see Red Hat classifications).
