REDHAT-BUG-902964
First published: Tue Jan 22 2013(Updated: )
Thierry Carrez (thierry) reports on behalf of the OpenStack Project: Title: Backend password leak in Glance error message Reporter: Dan Prince (Red Hat) Products: Glance Affects: All versions Dan Prince of Red Hat discovered an issue in Glance error reporting. By creating an image in Glance by URL that references a mis-configured Swift endpoint, or if the Swift endpoint that a previously-ACTIVE image references for any reason becomes unusable, an authenticated user may access the Glance operator's Swift credentials for that endpoint. Only setups that use the single-tenant Swift store are affected. Proposed patches: See attached patches for current development tree (Grizzly) and the Folsom and Essex series. Unless a flaw is discovered in them, these proposed patches will be merged to Glance master, stable/folsom and stable/essex branches on the public disclosure date.
