CVE-2015-3280: OpenStack Compute (nova) allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service

May 14, 2022 (updated February 8, 2023)

A flaw was found in the way OpenStack Compute (nova) handled the resize state. If an authenticated user deleted an instance while it was in the resize state, it could cause the original instance to not be deleted from the compute node it was running on, allowing the user to cause a denial of service.
