Red Hat Security Advisory 2016-0155-01
Red Hat Security Advisory 2016-0155-01 – OpenStack Object Storage provides object storage in virtual containers, which allows users to store and retrieve files.

Because Object Storage supports asynchronous eventual consistency replication, it is well suited to multiple data-center deployment. A memory-leak issue was found in OpenStack Object Storage, in the proxy-to-server connection. An OpenStack-authenticated attacker could remotely trigger this flaw to cause denial of service through excess memory consumption.
