Description

An improper authorization flaw was discovered in openstack-selinux's applied policy where it does not prevent a non-root user in a container from privilege escalation.

With access to the dbus, the attacker could start or stop services, possibly causing a denial of service. Versions before openstack-selinux 0.8.24 are affected.

• redhat openstack-selinux (< 0.8.24) • redhat openstack platform 15.0 • redhat openstack platform 16.1
