Security Fix(es):
* openstack-nova: Nova server resource faults leak external exception
details (CVE-2019-14433)
For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS
score, acknowledgments, and other related information, refer to the CVE
page(s) listed in the References section.
Bug Fix(es):
* Previously, the heal info cache periodic task used the network info cache
to heal the network info cache. If the cache was corrupted or missing, the
heal info cache task could not heal the network info cache.
With this update, the heal info cache uses VM data from Neutron when
healing the network info cache. (BZ#1703225)
* Previously, evacuation, migration, and resize operations took
unnecessarily long to process on destination hosts with a large number of
network interfaces. This was due to the my_ip configuration printing a
warning when it did not find any of the host interfaces.
With this update, the my_ip configuration occurs only once during host
initialization. This reduces the time it takes to process migrations,
evacuations, and resize operations. (BZ#1732879)
