Fedora 19 : openstack-swift-1.8.0-3.fc19 (2013-14477)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 69387

Synopsis

The remote Fedora host is missing a security update.

Description

This update fixes the possibility to fill up a Swift fluster with invalid tombstone files by attacking with DELETE requests with a special timestamp.

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Fedora security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

Solution

Update the affected openstack-swift package.
