It was recently learned by the OpenStack community that running qemu-img on un-trusted images without a format pre-specified can present a security risk. Furthermore, some of these specific image formats have inherently unsafe features. This is rooted in how qemu-img operates where all image drivers are loaded and attempt to evaluate the input data. This can result in several different vectors which this patch works to close. This change imports the qemu-img handling code from Ironic-Lib into Ironic, and image format inspection code, which has been developed by the wider community to validate general safety of images before converting them for use in a deployment. This patch contains functional changes related to the hardening of these calls including how images are handled, and updates documentation to provide context and guidance to operators.

Ironic
Team and repository tags
Overview
Ironic consists of an API and plug-ins for managing and provisioning physical machines in a security-aware and fault-tolerant manner. It can be used with nova as a hypervisor driver, or standalone service using bifrost. By default, it will use PXE and IPMI to interact with bare metal machines. Ironic also supports vendor-specific plug-ins which may implement additional functionality.
Ironic is distributed under the terms of the Apache License, Version 2.0. The full terms and conditions of this license are detailed in the LICENSE file.
