Descriptions
OpenStack Image Registry and Delivery Service (Glance) 2014.2 through 2014.2.2 does not properly remove images, which allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (disk consumption) by creating a large number of images using the task v2 API and then deleting them before the uploads finish, a different vulnerability than CVE-2015-1881.
OpenStack Image Registry and Delivery Service (Glance) 2014.2 hasta 2014.2.2 no elimina correctamente las imágenes, lo que permite a usuarios remotos autenticados causar una denegación de servicio (consumo de disco) mediante la creación de un número grande de imágenes al utilizar una API v2 de tareas y posteriormente eliminándolas antes de que terminen las subidas, una vulnerabilidad diferente a CVE-2015-1881.
Multiple flaws were found in the glance task API that could cause untracked image data to be left in the back end. A malicious user could use these flaws to deliberately accumulate untracked image data, and cause a denial of service via resource exhaustion.
