details: OpenStack Compute (Nova) Folsom before 2012.2.2 and Grizzly, when using libvirt
  and LVM backed instances, does not properly clear physical volume (PV) content when
  reallocating for instances, which allows attackers to obtain sensitive information
  by reading the memory of the previous logical volume (LV).
