Assuming we have answers to your other questions, and Cinder/Glance/Nova security reviewers confirm they're comfortable with the proposed master branch patches and expect them to be safely backportable to maintained stable branches of their respective projects, I'll start drafting an impact statement to use in requesting a private CVE assignment and for inclusion in embargoed downstream stakeholder notifications (and eventually in a corresponding security advisory publication).

Once we have a CVE assignment and backports attached for each project's patch, we should be ready to schedule the advisory publication and provide advance copies of those patches to the downstream stakeholders.
