Tue May 15 17:43:14 UTC 2018

Updated redhat-virtualization-host packages that fix several bugs and add
various enhancements are now available.

2. Relevant releases/architectures:

RHEL 7-based RHEV-H for RHEV 4 (build requirements) - noarch, x86_64
Red Hat Virtualization 4 Hypervisor for RHEL 7 - 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.

Includes GlusterFS fixes for CVE-2018-1088, dhcp fixes for CVE-2018-1111,
kernel fixes for CVE-2018-1087, and kernel fixes for CVE-2018-8897.
