| Doc Text: |
A flaw was found in OpenStack keystonemiddleware. The external_oauth2_token middleware fails to properly sanitize incoming authentication headers. An authenticated attacker can exploit this by sending forged identity headers, such as X-Is-Admin-Project, X-Roles, or X-User-Id. This can lead to privilege escalation or impersonation of other users within the system.
