nova vulnerability
==========================================================================
A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives:
- Ubuntu 12.10

- Ubuntu 11.10
Summary:
Nova volume could be made to expose volumes from other users.
Software Description:
- nova: OpenStack Compute cloud infrastructure
Details:
Phil Day discovered that nova-volume did not validate access to volumes. An
authenticated attacker could exploit this to bypass intended access
controls and boot from arbitrary volumes.

package versions:
