Improper Input Validation

CVE-2018-14635

Summary

When using the Linux bridge ml2 driver, non-privileged tenants are able to create and attach ports without specifying an IP address, bypassing IP address validation.

Versions of openstack-neutron before 11.0.6, 12.0.x before 12.0.4, 13.0.0.0b1 and 13.0.0.0b2 are vulnerable.
