OpenStack Compute (Nova) Folsom, Grizzly, and Havana, when use_cow_images is set to False, does not verify the virtual size of a QCOW2 image, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (host file system disk consumption) by transferring an image with a large virtual size that does not contain a large amount of data from Glance. NOTE: this issue is due to an incomplete fix for CVE-2013-2096.

CVE-2013-1068 [MEDIUM] OpenStack Nova vulnerabilities
Title: OpenStack Nova vulnerabilities
Summary: Several security issues were fixed in OpenStack Nova.
Darragh O'Reilly discovered that the Ubuntu packaging for OpenStack Nova
did not properly set up its sudo configuration. If a different flaw was
found in OpenStack Nova, this vulnerability could be used to escalate
privileges. This issue only affected Ubuntu 13.10 and Ubuntu 14.04 LTS.

Thierry Carrez of the OpenStack project reports:
Title: Potential Nova denial of service through compressed disk images
Reporter: Pedraig Brady from Red Hat
Products: Nova
Affects: All versions
Description:
Pedraig Brady from Red Hat additionally discovered that OSSA 2013-012 did
not fully address CVE-2013-2096 in the non-default case where
use_cow_images=False, and malicious qcow images are being transferred
from Glance. In that specific case, an authenticated user could still
consume large amounts of disk space for each instance using the
malicious image, potentially also resulting in a Denial of Service
attack on Nova compute nodes. The provided fixes address both issues.
