======================================================================== OSSA-2023-002: Arbitrary file access through custom VMDK flat descriptor ========================================================================
:Date: January 24, 2023 :CVE: CVE-2022-47951
Affects ~~~~~~~ - Cinder, glance, nova: Cinder <19.1.2, >=20.0.0 <20.0.2, ==21.0.0; Glance <23.0.1, >=24.0.0 <24.1.1, ==25.0.0; Nova <24.1.2, >=25.0.0 <25.0.2, ==26.0.0
Description ~~~~~~~~~~~ Guillaume Espanel, Pierre Libeau, Arnaud Morin and Damien Rannou (OVH) reported a vulnerability in VMDK image processing for Cinder, Glance and Nova. By supplying a specially created VMDK flat image which references a specific backing file path, an authenticated user may convince systems to return a copy of that file's contents from the server resulting in unauthorized access to potentially sensitive data. All Cinder deployments are affected; only Glance deployments with image conversion enabled are affected; all Nova deployments are affected.
