NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream horizon package and not the horizon package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:9 relevant fixed versions and status.

OpenStack Dashboard (Horizon) before 2014.1.3 and 2014.2.x before 2014.2.1 does not properly handle session records when using a db or memcached session engine, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via a large number of requests to the login page.
