Doc Text:
A flaw was found in keystone revocation events that resulted in the "issued_at" time being updated when a token created by the V2 API was processed by the V3 API. This could allow a user to evade token revocation. Only OpenStack Identity setups configured to make use of revocation events and UUID tokens were affected.

Description Vasyl Kaigorodov 2014-08-06 09:05:04 EDT
It was reported [1] that in Keystone V2 token support, by creating a token using the V2 API, a user may evade token revocation.
When the token is processed by the V3 API, its "issued_at" time is wrongly updated and then the service will fail to revoke it.
Only Keystone setups configured to use revocation events and UUID tokens are affected.

CVE request has been sent to oss-security mailing list by upstream [2]

Comment 2 Vasyl Kaigorodov 2014-08-06 10:17:40 EDT
It's stated in the Launchpad ticket that this would only impact Icehouse (openstack-2014.X) since that's where revocation events were added.
Comment 3 Garth Mollett 2014-08-15 01:35:45 EDT
Statement:

This issue does not affected openstack-keystone as shipped with Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform 4.0.
Comment 4 Garth Mollett 2014-08-15 01:39:40 EDT
Keystone in RHEL-OSP-5 (Icehouse) includes this code, although it is marked as experimental in Icehouse upstream, we do include an example of how to enable it in our documentation and thus will need to release an erratum.
