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.
