title: 'Nova compute DoS through ephemeral disk backing files'
description: 'Phil Day from HP reported a vulnerability in the libvirt driver handling
of ephemeral disk backing files on Nova compute nodes. By repeatedly creating snapshots,
changing the os_type to a new random value, and spawning new instances from the
snapshot (and quickly deleting those instances), an authenticated user could generate
lots of different ephemeral disk backing files and fill up compute node disks, potentially
resulting in a Denial of Service against a Nova setup. Only Nova setups running
the libvirt driver are affected.'
