fixed in 2012.2.4-r8 and 2013.1.3-r5 badness removed removing myself from cc CVE-2013-4278 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2013-4278): The "create an instance" API in OpenStack Compute (Nova) Folsom, Grizzly, and Havana does not properly enforce the os-flavor-access:is_public property, which allows remote authenticated users to boot arbitrary flavors by guessing the flavor id. NOTE: this issue is due to an incomplete fix for CVE-2013-2256. |
From ${URL} : Vincent Danen (vdanen@redhat.com) reports: The previous fix was insufficient and did not fully fix the flaw, as noted here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ossa/+bug/1212179 The patch to fully correct this flaw is here (I believe it would be in addition to previously-mentioned patches): https://github.com/openstack/nova/commit/4054cc4a22a1fea997dec76afb5646fd6c6ea6b9 @maintainer(s): after the bump, in case we need to stabilize the package, please say explicitly if it is ready for the stabilization or not.
