A vulnerability CVE-2024-32498 has been found in QCOW2 image processing for Cinder, Glance and Nova. By supplying a specially created QCOW2 image which references a specific data file path, an authenticated user may convince systems to return a copy of that file contents from the server resulting in unauthorized access to potentially sensitive data. All Cinder deployments are affected; only Glance deployments with image conversion enabled are affected; all Nova deployments are affected.

Further details are available in the SVG Advisory.
