DEBIAN-CVE-2015-7548

OpenStack Compute Nova before 2015.1.3 kilo and 12.0.x before 12.0.1 liberty, when using libvirt to spawn instances and usecowimages is set to false, allow remote authenticated users to read arbitrary files by overwriting an instance disk with a crafted image and requesting a snapshot...

openstack-nova: Unprivileged API user can access host data using instance snapshot

A flaw was discovered in the OpenStack Compute nova snapshot feature when using the libvirt driver. A compute user could overwrite an attached instance disk with a malicious header specifying a backing file, and then request a snapshot, causing a file from the compute host to be leaked. This flaw...

Qemu: qcow1: validate L2 table size to avoid integer overflows

An integer overflow flaw was found in the QEMU block driver for QCOW version 1 disk images. A user able to alter the QEMU disk image files loaded by a guest could use this flaw to corrupt QEMU process memory on the host, which could potentially result in arbitrary code execution on the host with...

Qemu: block: missing input validation

QEMU before 2.0.0 block drivers for CLOOP, QCOW2 version 2 and various other image formats are vulnerable to potential memory corruptions, integer/buffer overflows or crash caused by missing input validations which could allow a remote user to execute arbitrary code on the host with the privilege...

openstack-nova: Nova host data leak to vm instance in rescue mode

The instance rescue mode in OpenStack Compute Nova 2013.2 before 2013.2.3 and Icehouse before 2014.1, when using libvirt to spawn images and usecowimages is set to false, allows remote authenticated users to read certain compute host files by overwriting an instance disk with a crafted image...

UBUNTU-CVE-2014-0222

Integer overflow in the qcowopen function in block/qcow.c in QEMU before 1.7.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service crash via a large L2 table in a QCOW version 1 image...

PYSEC-2014-112

The instance rescue mode in OpenStack Compute Nova 2013.2 before 2013.2.3 and Icehouse before 2014.1, when using libvirt to spawn images and usecowimages is set to false, allows remote authenticated users to read certain compute host files by overwriting an instance disk with a crafted image...

PT-2014-2798

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions OpenStack Compute Nova versions Folsom through Havana Description The issue allows local users to cause a denial of service, specifically host file system disk consumption, via a compressed QCOW2 image. This is due to the incomplete verificati...

Nova: Compressed disk image DoS

OpenStack Compute Nova Folsom, Grizzly, and Havana does not properly verify the virtual size of a QCOW2 image, which allows local users to cause a denial of service host file system disk consumption via a compressed QCOW2 image. NOTE: this issue is due to an incomplete fix for CVE-2013-2096...
