What's coming in CloudMonkey v6.0.0
The original CloudMonkey was contributed to the Apache CloudStack project on 31 Oct 2012 under the Apache License 2.0. It is written in Python and shipped using the Python CheeseShop, and since its inception has gone through several refactors and rewrites. While this has worked well over the years, the installation and usage have been limited to just a few modern platforms due to the dependency on Python 2.7, meaning it is hard to install on older distributions such as CentOS6.

Dnsmasq Vulnerabilities Advisory for CloudStack
Recently, a number of security flaws were recently found in the DNSMasq tool. This tool is used by many systems to provide DNS and DHCP services, including by the CloudStack System VMs.
According to Google’s investigation into the software, out of seven issues, three — CVE-2017-14491, CVE-2017-14492, and CVE-2017-14493 — are remote code execution flaws caused by heap buffer overflow and stack buffer overflow errors through DHCP and DNS vectors.
Apache CloudStack registerUserKeys authorization vulnerability
The CloudStack security team recently received notice of a significant vulnerability in a CloudStack API call - registerUserKeys. The original intention for this call was for it to only be exposed for integration work - eg not to the public network in general. A weakness in the API call's implementation allows a malicious user to reset the API keys for other users on the system, thus accessing resources and services available to that user. We have released CloudStack versions 4.8.1.1 and 4.9.0.1 with patches for this issue. More details about the release can be read on the official announcement post.
