{"id":"UBUNTU-CVE-2014-3608","details":"The VMWare driver in OpenStack Compute (Nova) before 2014.1.3 allows remote authenticated users to bypass the quota limit and cause a denial of service (resource consumption) by putting the VM into the rescue state, suspending it, which puts into an ERROR state, and then deleting the image.  NOTE: this vulnerability exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2014-2573.","modified":"2026-01-30T02:45:52.835183Z","published":"2014-10-06T00:00:00Z","related":["USN-2407-1"],"upstream":["CVE-2014-3608"],"references":[{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://ubuntu.com/security/CVE-2014-3608"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"http://seclists.org/oss-sec/2014/q4/65"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://ubuntu.com/security/notices/USN-2407-1"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2014-3608"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"nova","ecosystem":"Ubuntu:14.04:LTS","purl":"pkg:deb/ubuntu/nova@1:2014.1.3-0ubuntu1.1?arch=source&distro=trusty"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"1:2014.1.3-0ubuntu1.1"}]}],"versions":["1:2013.2~rc2-0ubuntu1","1:2013.2-0ubuntu1","1:2014.1~b1-0ubuntu1","1:2014.1~b1-0ubuntu2","1:2014.1~b2-0ubuntu3","1:2014.1~b2-0ubuntu4","1:2014.1~b3-0ubuntu1","1:2014.1~b3-0ubuntu2","1:2014.1~rc1-0ubuntu1","1:2014.1~rc2-0ubuntu1","1:2014.1-0ubuntu1","1:2014.1-0ubuntu1.2","1:2014.1.1-0ubuntu1","1:2014.1.1-0ubuntu2","1:2014.1.2-0ubuntu1","1:2014.1.2-0ubuntu1.1","1:2014.1.3-0ubuntu1"],"ecosystem_specific":{"binaries":[{"binary_name":"nova-ajax-console-proxy","binary_version":"1:2014.1.3-0ubuntu1.1"},{"binary_name":"nova-api","binary_version":"1:2014.1.3-0ubuntu1.1"},{"binary_name":"nova-api-ec2","binary_version":"1:2014.1.3-0ubuntu1.1"},{"binary_name":"nova-api-metadata","binary_version":"1:2014.1.3-0ubuntu1.1"},{"binary_name":"nova-api-os-compute","binary_version":"1:2014.1.3-0ubuntu1.1"},{"binary_name":"nova-api-os-volume","binary_version":"1:2014.1.3-0ubuntu1.1"},{"binary_name":"nova-baremetal","binary_version":"1:2014.1.3-0ubuntu1.1"},{"binary_name":"nova-cells","binary_version":"1:2014.1.3-0ubuntu1.1"},{"binary_name":"nova-cert","binary_version":"1:2014.1.3-0ubuntu1.1"},{"binary_name":"nova-common","binary_version":"1:2014.1.3-0ubuntu1.1"},{"binary_name":"nova-compute","binary_version":"1:2014.1.3-0ubuntu1.1"},{"binary_name":"nova-compute-kvm","binary_version":"1:2014.1.3-0ubuntu1.1"},{"binary_name":"nova-compute-libvirt","binary_version":"1:2014.1.3-0ubuntu1.1"},{"binary_name":"nova-compute-lxc","binary_version":"1:2014.1.3-0ubuntu1.1"},{"binary_name":"nova-compute-qemu","binary_version":"1:2014.1.3-0ubuntu1.1"},{"binary_name":"nova-compute-vmware","binary_version":"1:2014.1.3-0ubuntu1.1"},{"binary_name":"nova-compute-xen","binary_version":"1:2014.1.3-0ubuntu1.1"},{"binary_name":"nova-conductor","binary_version":"1:2014.1.3-0ubuntu1.1"},{"binary_name":"nova-console","binary_version":"1:2014.1.3-0ubuntu1.1"},{"binary_name":"nova-consoleauth","binary_version":"1:2014.1.3-0ubuntu1.1"},{"binary_name":"nova-network","binary_version":"1:2014.1.3-0ubuntu1.1"},{"binary_name":"nova-novncproxy","binary_version":"1:2014.1.3-0ubuntu1.1"},{"binary_name":"nova-objectstore","binary_version":"1:2014.1.3-0ubuntu1.1"},{"binary_name":"nova-scheduler","binary_version":"1:2014.1.3-0ubuntu1.1"},{"binary_name":"nova-spiceproxy","binary_version":"1:2014.1.3-0ubuntu1.1"},{"binary_name":"nova-volume","binary_version":"1:2014.1.3-0ubuntu1.1"},{"binary_name":"nova-xvpvncproxy","binary_version":"1:2014.1.3-0ubuntu1.1"},{"binary_name":"python-nova","binary_version":"1:2014.1.3-0ubuntu1.1"}],"availability":"No subscription required"},"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-security-notices/blob/main/osv/cve/2014/UBUNTU-CVE-2014-3608.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.7.3","severity":[{"type":"Ubuntu","score":"negligible"}]}
