  - An issue was discovered in OpenStack Cinder before 19.1.2, 20.x before 20.0.2, and 21.0.0; Glance before

    supplying a specially created VMDK flat image that references a specific backing file path, 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. (CVE-2022-47951)
