Details
Duncan Thomas discovered that OpenStack Cinder did not properly track the
file format when using the GlusterFS of Smbfs drivers. A remote
authenticated user could exploit this to potentially obtain file contents
from the compute host. (CVE-2014-3641)
Amrith Kumar discovered that OpenStack Cinder did not properly sanitize log
message contents. Under certain circumstances, a local attacker with read
access to Cinder log files could obtain access to sensitive information.
(CVE-2014-7230)
Update instructions
The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following package versions:
Ubuntu 14.04
In general, a standard system update will make all the necessary changes.
