OSSA-2021-005: Arbitrary dnsmasq reconfiguration via extra_dhcp_opts
====================================================================
:Date: August 31, 2021
:CVE: CVE-2021-40085
Affects
~~~~~~~
- Neutron: <16.4.1, >=17.0.0 <17.2.1, >=18.0.0 <18.1.1
Description
~~~~~~~~~~~
Pavel Toporkov reported a vulnerability in Neutron. By supplying a
specially crafted extra_dhcp_opts value, an authenticated user may add
arbitrary configuration to the dnsmasq process in order to crash the
service, change parameters for other tenants sharing the same
interface, or otherwise alter that daemon's behavior. This
vulnerability may also be used to trigger a configuration parsing
buffer overflow in versions of dnsmasq prior to 2.81, which could lead
to remote code execution. All Neutron deployments are affected.
