gives a detailed severity rating, is available for each vulnerability from
the CVE link(s) in the References section.
2. Relevant releases/architectures:
RHEL 8-based RHEV-H for RHEV 4 (build requirements) - noarch, x86_64
Red Hat Virtualization 4 Hypervisor for RHEL 8 - x86_64
Red Hat Virtualization 4 Management Agent for RHEL 7 Hosts - noarch
3. Description:
The redhat-virtualization-host packages provide the Red Hat Virtualization
Host. These packages include redhat-release-virtualization-host,
ovirt-node, and rhev-hypervisor. Red Hat Virtualization Hosts (RHVH) are
installed using a special build of Red Hat Enterprise Linux with only the
packages required to host virtual machines. RHVH features a Cockpit user
interface for monitoring the host's resources and performing administrative
tasks.

Security Fix(es):
* python-cryptography: bleichenbacher timing oracle attack against RSA
decryption (CVE-2020-25659)
* krb5: unbounded recursion via an ASN.1-encoded Kerberos message in
lib/krb5/asn.1/asn1_encode.c may lead to DoS (CVE-2020-28196)
* python-cryptography: certain sequences of update() calls when
symmetrically encrypting very large payloads could result in an integer
overflow and lead to buffer overflows (CVE-2020-36242)
For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS
score, and other related information, refer to the CVE page(s) listed in
the References section.
Bug Fix(es):
* Previously, old RPM files were not properly removed during package
removal (uninistall) or upgrade. As a result, removed packages were
reinstalled, or, during and upgrade, the system tried to install two or
more different versions at once, causing the upgrade to fail.
In this release, the dnf plugin has been fixed, and RPM packages are now
properly removed.
The new version will also auto-heal the broken system by removing RPM
packages which are not supposed to be in the persisted-rpms directory.
(BZ#1936972)
* With this release, ovirt-hosted-engine-ha supports multiple,
comma-separated values for all iSCSI configuration items. (BZ#1909888)
