Wiedemann and Pedraig Brady discovered that OpenStack Nova did\nnot properly verify the virtual size of a QCOW2 images. A remote\nauthenticated attacker could exploit this to create a denial of service via\ndisk consumption. This issue did not affect Ubuntu 14.04 LTS.\n(CVE-2013-4463, CVE-2013-4469)\n\nJuanFra Rodriguez Cardoso discovered that OpenStack Nova did not enforce\nSSL connections when Nova was configured to use QPid and qpid_protocol is\nset to 'ssl'. If a remote attacker were able to perform a machine-in-the-middle\nattack, this flaw could be exploited to view sensitive information. Ubuntu\ndoes not use QPid with Nova by default.
