[OSSA-2026-004] Glance: Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) vulnerabilities in OpenStack Glance image import functionality (CVE-2026-pending)
by Brian Rosmaita 20 Mar '26

20 Mar '26

==================================================================== OSSA-2026-004: Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) vulnerabilities in OpenStack Glance image import functionality ==================================================================== :Date: March 19, 2026 :CVE: CVE-2026-pending Affects ~~~~~~~ - Glance: <29.1.1, >=30.0.0 <30.1.1, ==31.0.0 Description ~~~~~~~~~~~ Hyeongeun_Ji of Open the Window and Abhishek Kekane of Red Hat reported multiple Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) vulnerabilities in Glance image import. By use of HTTP redirects, an authenticated user can bypass URL validation checks and redirect to internal services. Only glance image import functionality is affected. In particular, the 'web-download' and 'glance-download' import methods are subject to this vulnerability, as is the optional (not enabled by default) 'ovf_process' image import plugin. We discuss each of the vulnerabilities in turn below. web-download Import Method SSRF ------------------------------- The web-download import method has two SSRF vulnerabilities: HTTP Redirect Bypass ++++++++++++++++++++ The web-download import method did not validate redirect destinations when following HTTP redirects. An attacker could provide an initial URL that passed validation but redirected to an internal or disallowed resource; the redirected URL was not subject to security checks. This is fixed by implementing a SafeRedirectHandler that validates redirect destinations before following them, using same validate_import_uri() checks as the initial URL. IP Address Encoding Bypass ++++++++++++++++++++++++++ The web-download import method URL validation could be bypassed by encoding IP addresses in alternative formats (decimal integer, hexadecimal, octal). For example, 127.0.0.1 could be encoded as 2130706433 (decimal) or 0x7f000001 (hexadecimal) to bypass blacklist checks. This is fixed by implementing a normalize_hostname() function that uses the Python standard library ipaddress module to validate IP addresses. The ipaddress module only accepts standard dotted-decimal notation for IPv4 and standard format for IPv6, automatically rejecting all encoded formats (decimal, hexadecimal, octal). Any attempt to use encoded IP formats is rejected, thereby preventing SSRF bypass attacks. glance-download Import Method SSRF ---------------------------------- The glance-download import method had redirect validation bypass vulnerabilities in two steps of the import flow: Image Data Download +++++++++++++++++++ When downloading image data from a remote Glance endpoint, redirects were not validated, allowing attackers to redirect to internal services. Metadata Fetch ++++++++++++++ When fetching image metadata from a remote Glance endpoint, redirects were not validated, allowing attackers to redirect to internal services. Both steps are fixed by using the SafeRedirectHandler described earlier to validate redirect destinations before following them. OVF Processing SSRF ------------------- The OVF processing functionality had critical SSRF vulnerability with zero protection - no URI validation, no redirect validation, and no IP normalization. The code directly called urllib.request.urlopen(uri) without any validation checks. This is fixed by adding URI validation using validate_import_uri() and redirect validation using SafeRedirectHandler.

The first Glance release candidate for gazpacho (32.0.0.0rc1) is vulnerable; 32.0.0.0rc2 will contain the fix. - The unmaintained/2023.1 branch, being unmaintained, will receive no new point releases, but a patch for it is provided as a courtesy.

================================================================= OSSA-2026-003: Remote code execution through Vitrage query parser ================================================================= :Date: March 03, 2026 :CVE: CVE-2026-28370 Affects ~~~~~~~ - Vitrage: <12.0.1, ==13.0.0, ==14.0.0, ==15.0.0 Description ~~~~~~~~~~~ Khalil Lemtaffah (Nokia) reported a vulnerability in the Vitrage query parser. A user allowed to access the Vitrage API may trigger code execution on the Vitrage service host as the user the Vitrage service runs under. This may result in unauthorized access to the host and further compromise of the Vitrage service. All deployments exposing the Vitrage API are affected.

[OSSA-2026-002] OpenStack Nova: calls qemu-img without format restrictions for resize (CVE-2026-24708)
by Jeremy Stanley 18 Feb '26

18 Feb '26

========================================================================= OSSA-2026-002: Nova calls qemu-img without format restrictions for resize ========================================================================= :Date: January 17, 2026 :CVE: CVE-2026-24709 Affects ~~~~~~~ - Nova: <30.2.2, >=31.0.0 <31.2.1, >=32.0.0 <32.1.1 Description ~~~~~~~~~~~ Dan Smith from Red Hat reported a vulnerability in nova. By writing a malicious QCOW header to a root or ephemeral disk and then triggering a resize, a user may convince Nova's flat image backend to call qemu-img without a format restriction resulting in an unsafe image resize operation that could destroy data on the host system. Only compute nodes using the Flat image backend (usually configured with use_cow_images=False) are affected.

[CVE-2026-22797] OpenStack keystonemiddleware: Privilege Escalation via Identity Headers in External OAuth2 Tokens (CVE-2026-22797)
by Jeremy Stanley 17 Jan '26

17 Jan '26

==================================================================== OSSA-2026-001: Privilege Escalation via Identity Headers in External OAuth2 Tokens ==================================================================== :Date: January 15, 2026 :CVE: CVE-2026-22797 Affects ~~~~~~~ - Keystonemiddleware: >=10.0.0 <10.7.2, >=10.8.0 <10.9.1, >=10.10.0 <10.12.1 Description ~~~~~~~~~~~ Grzegorz Grasza with Red Hat reported a vulnerability in the external_oauth2_token middleware for keystonemiddleware. This middleware fails to sanitize incoming authentication headers before processing OAuth 2.0 tokens. By sending forged identity headers such as X-Is-Admin-Project, X-Roles, or X-User-Id, an authenticated attacker may escalate privileges or impersonate other users. All deployments using the external_oauth2_token middleware are affected. Patches ~~~~~~~ - https://review.opendev.org/973499 (2024.1/caracal) - https://review.opendev.org/973497 (2024.2/dalmatian) - https://review.opendev.org/973496 (2025.1/epoxy) - https://review.opendev.org/973495 (2025.2/flamingo) - https://review.opendev.org/973494 (2026.1/gazpacho) Credits ~~~~~~~ - Grzegorz Grasza from Red Hat (CVE-2026-22797) References ~~~~~~~~~~ - https://launchpad.net/bugs/2129018 - http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2026-22797 Notes ~~~~~ - The unmaintained/2024.1 branches will receive no new point releases, but patches for them are provided as a courtesy. - This bug was possible because the middleware only conditionally set certain headers (e.g., X-Is-Admin-Project was only set when the token had admin privileges), leaving spoofed values intact when conditions were not met. - The fix adds a call to remove_auth_headers() at the start of request processing to sanitize all incoming identity headers, matching the behavior of the main auth_token middleware. - The external_oauth2_token middleware was introduced in keystonemiddleware 10.0.0. -- Jeremy Stanley OpenStack Vulnerability Management Team https://security.openstack.org/vmt.html

[OSSA-2025-002] OpenStack Keystone: Unauthenticated access to EC2/S3 token endpoints can grant Keystone authorization (CVE PENDING)
by Jeremy Stanley 18 Nov '25

18 Nov '25

========================================================================= OSSA-2025-002: Unauthenticated access to EC2/S3 token endpoints can grant Keystone authorization ========================================================================= :Date: November 04, 2025 :CVE: PENDING Affects ~~~~~~~ - Keystone: <26.0.1, ==27.0.0, ==28.0.0 Description ~~~~~~~~~~~ kay reported a vulnerability in Keystone’s ec2tokens and s3tokens APIs. By sending those endpoints a valid AWS Signature (e.g., from a presigned S3 URL), an unauthenticated attacker may obtain Keystone authorization (ec2tokens can yield a fully scoped token; s3tokens can reveal scope accepted by some services), resulting in unauthorized access and privilege escalation. Deployments where /v3/ec2tokens or /v3/s3tokens are reachable by unauthenticated clients (e.g., exposed on a public API) are affected. Patches ~~~~~~~ - https://review.opendev.org/966073 (2024.2/dalmatian(keystone)) - https://review.opendev.org/966067 (2024.2/dalmatian(swift)) - https://review.opendev.org/966071 (2025.1/epoxy(keystone)) - https://review.opendev.org/966064 (2025.1/epoxy(swift)) - https://review.opendev.org/966070 (2025.2/flamingo(keystone)) - https://review.opendev.org/966063 (2025.2/flamingo(swift)) - https://review.opendev.org/966069 (2026.1/gazpacho(keystone)) - https://review.opendev.org/966062 (2026.1/gazpacho(swift)) Credits ~~~~~~~ - kay (CVE PENDING) References ~~~~~~~~~~ - https://launchpad.net/bugs/2119646 Notes ~~~~~ - While the indicated Keystone patches are sufficient to mitigate this vulnerability, corresponding changes for Swift are included which keep its optional S3-like API working. - MITRE CVE Request 1930434 has been awaiting assignment since 2025-09-24, but once completed will result in an errata revision to this advisory reflecting the correct CVE ID. If any other CNA has assigned a CVE themselves in the meantime, please reject it so that we don't end up with duplicates. -- Jeremy Stanley OpenStack Vulnerability Management Team https://security.openstack.org/vmt.html
