I managed to reproduce the issue by trying to provision a RHEL7.3 as a vm with 768MB of RAM. Increasing the amount of RAM to 1GB fixed the issue.
Apparently dracut is trying to download a squashfs image which should serve as installer rootfs, but fails because it runs out of memory when trying to save the image.
Maybe it should be stated in the docs, that rhel7.3 is a bit more resource hungry than 7.2
