OpenStack Compute (Nova) Folsom, Grizzly, and earlier, when using Apache
Qpid for the RPC backend, does not properly handle errors that occur during
messaging, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service
(connection pool consumption), as demonstrated using multiple requests that
send long strings to an instance console and retrieving the console log.
