Doc Text:
A race-condition flaw was discovered in openstack-neutron where, following a minor overcloud update, neutron security groups were disabled. Specifically, the following were reset to 0: net.bridge.bridge-nf-call-ip6tables and net.bridge.bridge-nf-call-iptables. The race was only triggered by an update, at which point an attacker could access exposed tenant VMs and network resources.

Description Kurt Seifried 2017-07-21 12:44:58 EDT
Paul Needle of Red Hat reports:

iptables/firewalld is not active on overcloud compute and controller nodes, following an 'openstack overcloud update ...' procedure run in a production environment yesterday. This has major impact given that there are end-customer workloads running in this environment.

All bugs except OSP12 are in MODIFIED now. OSP12 will get the fix through regular RDO sync process (we can leave it without a OSP fix for the time being because it was not released yet).
Comment 5 Summer Long 2017-07-25 19:10:48 EDT
Mitigation:

To determine whether your system is impacted, run:
$ sudo sysctl net.bridge.bridge-nf-call-ip6tables 
$ sudo sysctl net.bridge.bridge-nf-call-iptables
Both should be set to 1

To reset security groups to '1':
1. Apply the following configuration modification:
$ sudo sed -i.back -e 's/reapply_sysctl = 0/reapply_sysctl = 1/' /etc/tuned/tuned-main.conf

2. Ensure the modification was successful:
$ grep reapply_sysctl /etc/tuned/tuned-main.conf
should be "reapply_sysctl = 1"

3. Check whether tuned is running:
$ sudo systemctl status tuned

4. Restart tuned to apply the new configuration:
$ sudo systemctl restart tuned

5. Recheck your security groups and the status of 'reapply_sysctl'.

Hi,

I checked the errata https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2017:2450 to get fix for vulnerability CVE-2017-7543 for openstack kilo, but it says to update the openstack-neutron rpm package. Can I get access to specific code fix made to fix this vulnerability?

Thanks.

Hi Suraj, Because this flaw only impacts Red Hat OpenStack Platform versions and not upstream, I can't offer an upstream code link. However, I have attached a file to this bug with a diff of the Red Hat updates (matching the errata you quoted). 
Hope this helps, Summer

Thanks Summer. This helped.
