Hello,

This is related to our recent discussion on customising the ROOT disk[1], being a bit unhappy about it I tried to test stuff and see how this could inconvenience users or admins.

So I created a 1 TB Centos 6 qcow2 template (compressed is more like 400 MB, but uncompressed is 10GB or so.. thanks ext4!) and tried to deploy it. Not only has Cloudstack (ACS 4.0.1) gladly downloaded and uncompressed the template even though the remote URL was NOT in the allowed list, but it also created an instance from it.. with 1 TB of space ... all this was done as a regular user, not admin.

First thing I would need to do is disable the users' ability to register templates.. any pointers?
