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.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This issue affects OpenStack Glance 2014.2 through 2014.2.2. An authenticated user could cause storage exhaustion by abusing image import/delete behavior, potentially disrupting image services and dependent cloud workflows. The provided sources do not give a CVSS score or claim active exploitation. Exposure is limited to environments running OpenStack Glance 2014.2 through 2014.2.2 with authenticated users able to access the task v2 API. Public cloud, private cloud, and multi-tenant OpenStack deployments are the most relevant scenarios. Treat as a targeted availability risk for legacy OpenStack environments. Prioritize quickly if Glance backs production workloads or multi-tenant users can create images. Modern or non-OpenStack environments are unlikely to be affected. Mitigation focus: Identify any Glance 2014.2 through 2014.2.2 deployments.; Review OSSA-2015-004 and applicable vendor advisories.; Apply vendor-provided updates or remediation guidance where applicable..
