The vulnerability exists due to application allows an attacker to control path of the files when processing VMDK flat images. A remote user can create a specially crafted VMDK flat image that references a specific backing file path and convince systems to return a copy of that file's contents from the server, resulting in unauthorized access to potentially sensitive data.

Mitigation

Update the affected package openstack-cinder, openstack-nova, python-oslo.utils to the latest version.
