OSSA-2013-024: Resource limit circumvention in Nova private flavors¶
- Date:
August 28, 2013
- CVE:
CVE-2013-4278
Affects¶
Nova: All versions
Description¶
Ken’ichi Ohmichi from NEC reported that the fix for OSSA 2013-019 (CVE-2013-2256) was incomplete. Any tenant was still able to boot any other tenant’s private flavors by guessing a flavor ID. This potentially allowed circumvention of any resource limits enforced through the os-flavor-access:is_public property.
