GHSA-q3m2-crgq-5p3q OpenStack Ironic fails to restrict paths used for file:// image URLs

• PyPI ironic: < 24.1.3 → fixed in 24.1.3 • PyPI ironic: >= 25.0.0, < 26.1.1 → fixed in 26.1.1 • PyPI ironic: >= 27.0.0, < 29.0.1 → fixed in 29.0.1

OpenStack Ironic before 29.0.1 can write unintended files to a target node disk during image handling (if a deployment was performed via the API). A malicious project assigned as a node owner can provide a path to any local file (readable by ironic-conductor), which may then be written to the target node disk. This is difficult to exploit in practice, because a node deployed in this manner should never reach the ACTIVE state, but it still represents a danger in environments running with non-default, insecure configurations such as with automated cleaning disabled. The fixed versions are 24.1.3, 26.1.1, and 29.0.1.
