3. Description:

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

Security Fix(es):

* A regular expression denial of service flaw was found in Tough-Cookie. An
attacker able to make an application using Touch-Cookie to parse a 
sufficiently large HTTP request Cookie header could cause the application 
to consume an excessive amount of CPU. (CVE-2016-1000232)

* It was found that the reason argument in ServerResponse#writeHead() was 
not properly validated. A remote attacker could possibly use this flaw to 
conduct an HTTP response splitting attack via a specially-crafted HTTP 
request. (CVE-2016-5325)
