Platform 8.0 (Liberty).

2. Relevant releases/architectures:

Red Hat OpenStack Platform 8.0 (Liberty) - noarch

3. Description:

OpenStack Orchestration (heat) is a template-driven engine used to specify
and deploy configurations for Compute, Storage, and OpenStack Networking.
The service can be used to automate post-deployment actions, which in turn
allows automated provisioning of infrastructure, services, and
applications. Additionally, Orchestration can be integrated with Telemetry
alarms to implement auto-scaling for certain infrastructure resources.

The following packages have been upgraded to a later upstream version:
openstack-heat (5.0.3). (BZ#1409638)

Security Fix(es):

* An information-leak vulnerability was found in the OpenStack
Orchestration (heat) service. Launching a new stack with a local URL
resulted in a detailed error message, allowing an authenticated user to
conduct network discovery and reveal the details of internal network
services. (CVE-2016-9185)

Bug Fix(es):

* Previously, when heat-engine was terminated during startup, it tried to
clean up processes that had not been started. Consequently, heat-engine
reported and logged the "NoneType" attribute error. This behaviour has been
corrected, and heat-engine now shuts down gracefully. (BZ#1389972)
