Good catch! New proposed description is:

Title: Authentication bypass for image deletion
Reporter: Gabe Westmaas (Rackspace)
Products: Glance
Affects: Essex, Folsom, Grizzly

Description:
Gabe Westmaas from Rackspace reported a vulnerability in Glance authentication of image deletion requests. Authenticated users may be able to delete arbitrary, non-protected images from Glance servers. Only Folsom/Grizzly deployments that expose the v1 API are affected by this vulnerability. Additionally, Essex deployments that use the delayed_delete option are also affected.
