OpenStack Compute (nova) allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service
Quick fix
PYSEC-2026-877 — nova: upgrade to the fixed version with the command below.
pip install --upgrade 'nova>=2014.2.4'Details
OpenStack Compute (nova) before 2014.2.4 (juno) and 2015.1.x before 2015.1.2 (kilo) does not properly delete instances from compute nodes, which allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (disk consumption) by deleting instances while in the resize state.
