CVE-2012-3240

The Walrus service in Eucalyptus 2.0.3 and 3.0.x before 3.0.2 allows remote attackers to gain administrator privileges via a crafted REST request.

Notes

AuthorNote
jdstrand
Ubuntu 10.04 LTS is not affected
requires backporting of Partitonn and Partitions which is very
intrusive
upstream did not release patches for the 2.0 series, so I contacted
them for help (2012-08-17)
no response from upstream as of 2012-09-24
