NVD Description

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

(1) impl_db2.py and (2) impl_mongodb.py in OpenStack Ceilometer 2013.2 and earlier, when the logging level is set to INFO, logs the connection string from ceilometer.conf, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information (the DB2 or MongoDB password) by reading the log file.
