An issue was discovered in OpenStack Cinder through 24.0.0, Glance before 28.0.2, and Nova before 29.0.3. Arbitrary file access can occur via custom QCOW2 external data. By supplying a crafted QCOW2 image that references a specific data file path, an authenticated user may convince systems to return a copy of that file's contents from the server, resulting in unauthorized access to potentially sensitive data. All Cinder and Nova deployments are affected; only Glance deployments with image conversion enabled are affected.

The remote Ubuntu 20.04 LTS / 22.04 LTS / 24.04 LTS host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-6882-2 advisory.

    USN-6882-1 fixed vulnerabilities in Cinder. The update caused a regression in certain environments due to     incorrect privilege handling. This update fixes the problem.

    We apologize for the inconvenience.

    Cinder is the replacement of nova-volume in Folsom and beyond, use d for     block storage.

    OpenStack Image Service (code-named Glance) provides     discovery,registration, and delivery services for virtual disk images. The     Image Service API server provides a standard REST interface for querying     information about virtual disk images stored in a variety of back-end     stores, including OpenStack Object Storage. Clients can register new     virtual disk images with the Image Service, query for information on     publicly available disk images, and use the Image Service's client library     for streaming virtual disk images.

    OpenStack Compute (codename Nova) is open source software designed     to provision and manage large networks of virtual machines,creating a     redundant and scalable cloud computing platform. It gives you the software,     control panels, and APIs required to orchestrate a cloud, including running     instances, managing networks, and controlling access through users and     projects.OpenStack Compute strives to be both hardware and hypervisor     agnostic, currently supporting a variety of standard hardware     configurations and seven major hypervisors.
