Summary

In Open vSwitch (OvS) v2.7.0, there is a buffer over-read while parsing the group mod OpenFlow message sent from the controller in `lib/ofp-util.c` in the function `ofputil_pull_ofp15_group_mod`.

Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE)

Common Attack Pattern Enumeration and Classification (CAPEC)

  • Overread Buffers
    An adversary attacks a target by providing input that causes an application to read beyond the boundary of a defined buffer. This typically occurs when a value influencing where to start or stop reading is set to reflect positions outside of the valid memory location of the buffer. This type of attack may result in exposure of sensitive information, a system crash, or arbitrary code execution.

    descriptionThis update for openvswitch fixes the following issues : - CVE-2017-9263: While parsing an OpenFlow role status message, there is a call to the abort() functio for undefined role status reasons in the function `ofp_print_role_status_message` in `lib/ofp-print.c` that may be leveraged toward a remote DoS attack by a malicious switch. (bsc#1041470) - CVE-2017-9265: Buffer over-read while parsing the group mod OpenFlow message sent from the controller in `lib/ofp-util.c` in the function `ofputil_pull_ofp15_group_mod`.(bsc#1041447) - CVE-2017-9214: While parsing an OFPT_QUEUE_GET_CONFIG_REPLY type OFP 1.0 message, there is a buffer over-read that is caused by an unsigned integer underflow in the function `ofputil_pull_queue_get_config_reply10` in `lib/ofp-util.c`. (bsc#1040543) - CVE-2017-14970: In lib/ofp-util.c, there are multiple memory leaks while parsing malformed OpenFlow group mod messages.(bsc#1061310) Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the SUSE security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

    OpenFlow role messages. A remote attacker could possibly use this
    issue to cause Open vSwitch to crash, resulting in a denial of

    It was discovered that Open vSwitch incorrectly handled certain
    malformed packets. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to
    cause Open vSwitch to crash, resulting in a denial of service. This

Open vSwitch provides standard network bridging functions and support for the OpenFlow protocol for remote per-flow control of traffic. The following packages have been upgraded to a later upstream version: openvswitch (2.7.2). (BZ#1472854) Security Fix(es) : * An unsigned int wrap around leading to a buffer over-read was found when parsing OFPT_QUEUE_GET_CONFIG_REPLY messages in Open vSwitch (OvS).

(CVE-2017-9214) * In Open vSwitch (OvS), while parsing an OpenFlow role status message there is a call to the abort() function for undefined role status reasons in the function `ofp_print_role_status_message` in `lib/ofp-print.c` that may be leveraged toward a remote DoS attack by a malicious switch. (CVE-2017-9263) * A buffer over-read was found in the Open vSwitch (OvS) firewall implementation. This flaw can be triggered by parsing a specially crafted TCP, UDP, or IPv6 packet.
