Hi Nick,

I like your vulnerability details, though there are a couple of small comments I'd like to make:

- "user could gain control of volumes" ==> It's more like they can gain read/write access to the volumes, but not control, because they cannot delete the volumes, take snapshots, etc.

- "the scope of exposed images" ==> This may be misleading, because when I hear the word "images" in the context of OpenStack I think of Glance images, not Cinder volumes.

- I feel like we are singling out Pure as the only affected FCP driver just because that's the one I could get my hands on. Maybe we can rephrase it:
  - Drivers using FCP will be affected unless the array sends the "Power-on Reset" SCSI Sense code when mapping the volume. In our limited testings only a 3PAR array sent it, but this doesn't mean that all 3PARs will do.

Cheers,
Gorka.
