=====================================================================

1. Summary:

An update for redhat-release-virtualization-host and
redhat-virtualization-host is now available for Red Hat Virtualization 4
for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.

Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security impact
of Important. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score,
which 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

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):

* kernel: out-of-bounds write due to a heap buffer overflow in
__hidinput_change_resolution_multipliers() of hid-input.c (CVE-2021-0512)

* Ansible: ansible-connection module discloses sensitive info in traceback
error message (CVE-2021-3620)

* kernel: Insufficient validation of user-supplied sizes for the MSG_CRYPTO
message type (CVE-2021-43267)

* libssh: NULL pointer dereference in sftpserver.c if ssh_buffer_new
returns NULL (CVE-2020-16135)

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):

* Red Hat Virtualization Host now includes packages from Red Hat Enterprise
Linux 8.5. (BZ#1958101)

* Red Hat Virtualization Host now includes packages from RHGS-3.5.z on
RHEL-8 Batch #5. (BZ#1975175)

* Red Hat Virtualization Host now includes the packages needed for using
Managed Block Devices via cinderlib. (BZ#1983021)

* Red Hat Virtualization Host now includes openvswitch related packages
from Fast Data Path 21.G release. (BZ#1998104)

* Previously it was not possible to upgrade RHVH to version 4.4.8 when
custom VDSM hooks were installed on RHVH. This was caused by the VDSM hooks
dependency on the concrete version of VDSM. The current release allows
users to maintain the VDSM dependency manually. In other words, if you want
to upgrade from VDSM X.Y.Z to version A.B.C, you must upgrade all VDSM
hooks to the same A.B.C version. (BZ#2004469)
