Posted Mar 4, 2014
Authored by Red Hat | Site access.redhat.com

Red Hat Security Advisory 2014-0229-01 - OpenStack Image service provides discovery, registration, and delivery services for disk and server images. It provides the ability to copy or snapshot a server image, and immediately store it away. Stored images can be used as a template to get new servers up and running quickly and more consistently than installing a server operating system and individually configuring additional services. An information leak flaw was found in the way glance stored certain logging information. An attacker with access to the glance log files could use this flaw to obtain authentication credentials to the OpenStack Object Storage back end. Note that only setups using the swift back end were affected.
