There have been some important updates that have occurred since the publication of this advisory: 1) When the advisory was published, the patch for the stable/essex branch had not been merged. It has now been merged and is *different* than the original patch. If you pulled the earlier patch, please update to the final version. https://github.com/openstack/glance/commit/efd7e75b1f419a52c7103c7840e24af8e... 2) It was discovered that the patches submitted for stable/folsom and master (grizzly) did not completely solve the problem. The original patch only fixed the problem for the v1 API. The problem still existed for the v2 API. Please see this commit for the additional patch: bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/glance/+bug/1076506 stable/folsom: https://github.com/openstack/glance/commit/fc0ee7623ec59c87ac6fc671e95a9798d... master: https://github.com/openstack/glance/commit/b591304b8980d8aca8fa6cda9ea1621ac... -- Russell Bryant OpenStack Vulnerability Management Team
