Description
This security bulletin contains information about 1 security vulnerability.
1) Improper Authentication (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-17134)
The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to read and manipulate data.
Amphora Images in OpenStack Octavia >=0.10.0 <2.1.2, >=3.0.0 <3.2.0, >=4.0.0 <4.1.0 allows anyone with access to the management network to bypass client-certificate based authentication and retrieve information or issue configuration commands via simple HTTP requests to the Agent on port https/9443, because the cmd/agent.py gunicorn cert_reqs option is True but is supposed to be ssl.CERT_REQUIRED.
Remediation
Install update from vendor's website.
