Summary

A flaw was found in Open Virtual Network (OVN). In OVN clusters where BFD is used between hypervisors for high availability, an attacker can inject specially crafted BFD packets from inside unprivileged workloads, including virtual machines or containers, triggering a denial of service.

Risk Assessment

An attacker inside a virtual machine or container can disrupt the OVN cluster and cause service unavailability.
