Summary

Details

api/metadata/handler.py in OpenStack Compute (Nova) before 2013.2.4, 2014.x before 2014.1.2, and Juno before Juno-2, when proxying metadata requests through Neutron, makes it easier for remote attackers to guess instance ID signatures via a brute-force attack that relies on timing differences in responses to instance metadata requests.

Severity

N/A (UNKNOWN)

Vulnerability from osv_ubuntu

Published

2014-08-21 21:20

Modified

2026-02-10 04:40

Summary

nova vulnerability

Details

Alex Gaynor discovered that OpenStack Nova would sometimes respond with variable times when comparing authentication tokens. If nova were configured to proxy metadata requests via Neutron, a remote authenticated attacker could exploit this to conduct timing attacks and ascertain configuration details of another instance.
