OpenShift Enterprise by Red Hat is the company’s cloud computing
Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) solution designed for on-premise or private
cloud deployments.

A buffer overflow flaw was discovered in the OVS processing of MPLS labels.
A remote attacker able to deliver a frame containing a malicious MPLS label
that would be processed by OVS could trigger the flaw and use the resulting
memory corruption to cause a denial of service (DoS) or, possibly, execute
arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-2074)

Red Hat would like to thank the Open vSwitch Project for reporting these
issues. Upstream acknowledges Kashyap Thimmaraju and Bhargava Shastry as
the original reporters of CVE-2016-2074.

This update includes the following images:

openshift3/openvswitch:v3.1.1.6-9
aep3_beta/openvswitch:v3.1.1.6-9
openshift3/node:v3.1.1.6-16
aep3_beta/node:v3.1.1.6-16

All openvswitch users are advised to upgrade to this updated package, which
contains a backported patch to correct this issue.
