CVE-2015-1881: OpenStack Glance Denial of service by creating a large number of images

May 17, 2022 (updated November 26, 2024)

OpenStack Image Registry and Delivery Service (Glance) 2014.2 through 2014.2.2 does not properly remove images, which allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (disk consumption) by creating a large number of images using the task v2 API and then deleting them, a different vulnerability than CVE-2014-9684.
