CVE-2015-3241 [MEDIUM] OpenStack Nova vulnerabilities
Title: OpenStack Nova vulnerabilities
Summary: Several security issues were fixed in OpenStack Nova.
George Shuklin discovered that OpenStack Nova incorrectly handled the
migration process. A remote authenticated user could use this issue to
consume resources, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2015-3241)
George Shuklin and Tushar Patil discovered that OpenStack Nova incorrectly
handled deleting instances. A remote authenticated user could use this
issue to consume disk resources, resulting in a denial of service.

CVE-2015-3241 [MEDIUM] CWE-400 openstack-nova: Nova instance migration process does not stop when instance is deleted
openstack-nova: Nova instance migration process does not stop when instance is deleted
OpenStack Compute (nova) 2015.1 through 2015.1.1, 2014.2.3, and earlier does not stop the migration process when the instance is deleted, which allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (disk, network, and other resource consumption) by resizing and then deleting an instance.
A denial of service flaw was found in the OpenStack Compute (nova) instance migration process. Because the migration process does not terminate when an instance is deleted, an authenticated user could bypass user quota and deplete all available disk space by repeatedly re-sizing and deleting an instance.
