https://usn.ubuntu.com/usn/usn-3430-1/

Your Environment

  • Calico 2.6
  • Openstack
  • Ubuntu, Trusty and Xenial

This has now been fixed, by upgrading the dnsmasq packages in all our PPAs (including calico-2.6) to v2.78, which:

  • fixes all of the CVEs referenced here
  • also includes all the dnsmasq enhancements that Calico for OpenStack depends on.
