NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream swift package and not the swift package as distributed by Ubuntu.

OpenStack Object Storage (Swift) before 2.4.0 does not properly close client connections, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (proxy-server resource consumption) via a series of interrupted requests to a Large Object URL.
