Description

The IPTables firewall in OpenStack Neutron before 7.0.4 and 8.0.0 through 8.1.0 allows remote attackers to bypass an intended ICMPv6-spoofing protection mechanism and consequently cause a denial of service or intercept network traffic via a link-local source address.

Affected

Our own answer: ranges merged, affected separated from platform-only, with confidence and review flags.

7.0.0 ≤ v < 7.0.48.0.0 ≤ v ≤ 8.1.0
Affected range stops below 7.0.4, so it looks safe — our inference, not a vendor statement
