CVE-2019-15753
Last modified
CVE-2019-15753 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. In OpenStack os-vif 1.15.x before 1.15.2, and 1.16.0, a hard-coded MAC aging time of 0 disables MAC learning in linuxbridge, forcing obligatory Ethernet flooding of non-local destinations, which both impedes network performance and allows users to possibly view the content of packets for instances belonging to other tenants sharing the same network. Only deployments using the linuxbridge backend are affected. EPSS estimates a 2.59% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
