"An updated rhev-hypervisor package that fixes one security issue and
several bugs is now available.

The Red Hat Security Response Team has rated this update as having
moderate security impact. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS)
base score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available from
the CVE link in the References section.

The rhev-hypervisor package provides a Red Hat Enterprise
Virtualization Hypervisor ISO disk image. The Red Hat Enterprise
Virtualization Hypervisor is a dedicated Kernel-based Virtual Machine
(KVM) hypervisor. It includes everything necessary to run and manage
virtual machines: A subset of the Red Hat Enterprise Linux operating
environment and the Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Agent.

Note: Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Hypervisor is only available
for the Intel 64 and AMD64 architectures with virtualization
extensions.

A flaw was found that allowed napi_reuse_skb() to be called on VLAN
(virtual LAN) packets. An attacker on the local network could trigger
this flaw by sending specially crafted packets to a target system,
possibly causing a denial of service. (CVE-2011-1576)

Red Hat would like to thank Ryan Sweat for reporting CVE-2011-1576.

This updated package provides updated components that include fixes
for security issues; however, these issues have no security impact for
Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Hypervisor. These fixes are for bash
issue CVE-2008-5374; curl issue CVE-2011-2192; kernel issues
CVE-2010-4649, CVE-2011-0695, CVE-2011-0711, CVE-2011-1044,
CVE-2011-1182, CVE-2011-1573, CVE-2011-1593, CVE-2011-1745,
CVE-2011-1746, CVE-2011-1776, CVE-2011-1780, CVE-2011-1936,
CVE-2011-2022, CVE-2011-2213, CVE-2011-2492, CVE-2011-2525, and
CVE-2011-2689; libvirt issue CVE-2011-2511; and rsync issue
CVE-2007-6200.

This update also fixes several bugs. Documentation for these bug fixes
will be available shortly from the Technical Notes document linked to
in the References section.

As Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Hypervisor is based on KVM, the
bug fixes from the KVM update RHBA-2011:1068 have been included in
this update :

https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHBA-2011-1068.html

Users of Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Hypervisor are advised to
upgrade to this updated package, which resolves this issue and fixes
the bugs noted in the Technical Notes."
