Bug Fix Advisory
Red Hat Insights patch analysis
Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
Updated OpenStack Object Storage packages that resolve various issues are
now available for Red Hat OpenStack Platform 10.0 (Newton) for RHEL 7.
Description
Red Hat OpenStack Platform provides the facilities for building, deploying
and monitoring a private or public infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS) cloud
running on commonly available physical hardware. This advisory includes
packages for:
- OpenStack Object Storage service
OpenStack Object Storage (swift) provides object storage in virtual
containers, which allows users to store and retrieve files (arbitrary
data). The service's distributed architecture supports horizontal scaling;
redundancy as failure-proofing is provided through software-based data
replication. Because Object Storage supports asynchronous eventual
consistency replication, it is well suited to multiple data-center
deployment.
Changes to the openstack-swift component:
- A race condition existed between uploading and replicating objects. Consequently, some of the objects were not replicated, which reduced the durability of the system. The problem has been fixed. Now, replication runs independently from the uploads and always replicates the existing status quo.
- The new version of the package can work with reduced space when drives unmount. Objects are replicated indepentently to all handoff locations.
- The new version of the package provides better protection against attackers who want to use the S3 tokens to gain access to the concurrent Swift API operations. In addition, the swift3 plugin now supports Keystone v3.
Solution
Before applying this update, ensure all previously released errata relevant
to your system have been applied.
