Rich Megginson of Red Hat reports:

When deploying Openshift with logging using Elasticsearch exposed as an external route it is possible for an attacker to connect to Elasticsearch without authentication.

I'm still waiting to hear if I need a separate errata for OSE 3.7, or if it is still possible to get this into 3.7.0.

I will need errata for 3.6, 3.5, and 3.4.  That means I will need bz for those releases.  There is already a 3.5 bz: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1501987

There is another bz attached to this bug: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1500758 I cannot view this - is this a 3.6 or 3.4 bz?
