   SUSE Security Update: Security update for openstack-swift
______________________________________________________________________________

Announcement ID:    SUSE-SU-2014:0547-1
Rating:             moderate
References:         #858459 
Cross-References:   CVE-2014-0006
Affected Products:
                    SUSE Cloud 3
______________________________________________________________________________

   An update that fixes one vulnerability is now available.

Description:


   A timing attack vulnerability has been fixed in
   openstack-swift, namely in  the Swift TempURL middleware.

   By analyzing response times to arbitrary TempURL requests,
   an attacker may  be able to guess valid secret URLs and get
   access to objects that were only  intended to be publicly
   shared with specific recipients. In order to use  this
   attack, the attacker needs to know the targeted object
   name, and the  object account needs to have a TempURL key
   set. Only Swift setups enabling  the TempURL middleware are
   affected.
