OSSA-2026-002: Nova calls qemu-img without format restrictions for resize
=========================================================================

:Date: January 17, 2026
:CVE: CVE-2026-24709

Affects
~~~~~~~
- Nova: <30.2.2, >=31.0.0 <31.2.1, >=32.0.0 <32.1.1

Description
~~~~~~~~~~~
Dan Smith from Red Hat reported a vulnerability in nova. By writing 
a malicious QCOW header to a root or ephemeral disk and then 
triggering a resize, a user may convince Nova's flat image backend 
to call qemu-img without a format restriction resulting in an unsafe 
image resize operation that could destroy data on the host system. 
Only compute nodes using the Flat image backend (usually configured 
with use_cow_images=False) are affected.
