we'll treat this as a class D report (security hardening opportunity)
and not need an advisory. I've ended the embargo and switched the bug to
public.

  When we try to update a cinder quota for a non-existent project, we get
  a 200ok response. The non-existent project doesn't get created, but am
  entry for this project in the quotas table of cinder is made.
  
   PUT /volume/v3/<proj-id>/os-quota-sets/<non-existent proj-id>
  
  Looks like project validation check is missing in the cinder quota
  update flow.
  
  Due to this flaw, multiple PUT calls on fake project ids might result in
  filling of quota tables very fast & can be considered a type of DOS
  attack.

** Changed in: ossa
       Status: Incomplete => Won't Fix
