Summary
Security update for openvswitch
Details

This update for openvswitch fixes the following issues:

  • CVE-2017-9263: OpenFlow role status message can cause a call to abort() leading to application crash (bsc#1041470)

  • CVE-2017-9265: Buffer over-read while parsing message could lead to crash or maybe arbitrary code execution (bsc#1041447)

  • Do not restart the ovs-vswitchd and ovsdb-server services on package updates (bsc#1002734)
