An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2015-8749 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- nova (PyPI): affected from 12.0.0; fixed in 12.0.1\n- nova (PyPI): affected from 12.0.0; fixed in 12.0.1\n- nova (PyPI): affected from 12.0.0; fixed in 12.0.1\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2015-8749/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2015-8749/index.md)","id":"CVE-2015-8749","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2015-8749/index.md","name":"CVE-2015-8749","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2015-8749","GHSA-c36r-g737-9qp8","PYSEC-2026-870","UBUNTU-CVE-2015-8749"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cloud_service","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"OpenStack Compute","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can obtain sensitive password information from log files in OpenStack Compute when using the Xen backend.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"information_disclosure"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"nova","vendor":"openstack"}],"cvss":{"score":5.9,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-200","name":"Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor"}],"description":"The volume_utils._parse_volume_info function in OpenStack Compute (Nova) before 2015.1.3 (kilo) and 12.0.x before 12.0.1 (liberty) includes the connection_info dictionary in the StorageError message when using the Xen backend, which might allow attackers to obtain sensitive password information by reading log files or other unspecified vectors.","ecosystems":["PyPI"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"OpenStack Nova Potential Xen connection password leak via StorageError","id":"CVE-2015-8749","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"PyPI","product":null,"products":[],"type":"information_disclosure","year":"2015"},"n_packages":3,"n_references":5,"next":{"headline":"Null dereference in n/a","id":"CVE-2015-8750"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"PyPI","fixed":["12.0.1"],"introduced":["12.0.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"nova","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-c36r-g737-9qp8"},{"ecosystem":"PyPI","fixed":["12.0.1"],"introduced":["12.0.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"nova","purl":"pkg:pypi/nova","source":"GHSA-c36r-g737-9qp8"},{"ecosystem":"PyPI","fixed":["12.0.1"],"introduced":["12.0.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"nova","purl":"pkg:pypi/nova","source":"PYSEC-2026-870"}],"prev":{"headline":"Radicale regex metacharacters injection in the user name","id":"CVE-2015-8748"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2016-01-15","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"OpenStack Nova logs sensitive context from notification exceptions","id":"CVE-2017-7214","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-03-21"},{"cvss_score":8.6,"headline":"OpenStack Nova DoS by rebuilding the same instance with a new image multiple times","id":"CVE-2017-17051","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-12-05"},{"cvss_score":8.3,"headline":"OpenStack Nova Live migration fails to update persistent domain XML","id":"CVE-2020-17376","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-08-26"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"OpenStack Nova Denial of service attack on the compute host","id":"CVE-2017-18191","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-02-19"},{"cvss_score":6.8,"headline":"OpenStack Compute (nova) allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service","id":"CVE-2015-3280","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2015-10-26"},{"cvss_score":6.8,"headline":"OpenStack Nova instance migration process does not stop when instance is deleted","id":"CVE-2015-3241","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2015-09-08"},{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"OpenStack Nova vulnerable to unauthorized access to potentially sensitive data","id":"CVE-2024-40767","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-07-24"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"GitHub Advisory Database","prefix":"GHSA"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"PyPA Advisory Database","prefix":"PYSEC"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-06","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Attackers can obtain sensitive password information from log files in OpenStack Compute when using the Xen backend.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2015-8749/"}
