Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor

nova is an OpenStack Nova provides a cloud computing fabric controller, supporting a wide variety of compute technologies, including: libvirt (KVM, Xen, LXC and more), Hyper-V, VMware, XenServer, OpenStack Ironic and PowerVM.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor due to improper input validation. An attacker can access sensitive data by supplying a specially crafted image that masquerades as a different format, which then references files on the server.

How to fix Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor?

Upgrade nova to version 29.2.0 or higher.

Improper Input Validation

nova is an OpenStack Nova provides a cloud computing fabric controller, supporting a wide variety of compute technologies, including: libvirt (KVM, Xen, LXC and more), Hyper-V, VMware, XenServer, OpenStack Ironic and PowerVM.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Improper Input Validation in QCOW2 image processing. An authenticated user may convince systems to return a copy of that file's contents from the server resulting in unauthorized access to potentially sensitive data and unbounded memory/CPU consumption.

Note: All Cinder deployments are affected; only Glance deployments with image conversion enabled are affected; all Nova deployments are affected.

How to fix Improper Input Validation?

Upgrade nova to version 27.4.0, 28.2.0, 29.1.0 or higher.
