Description Tim Suter 2016-11-07 05:48:59 UTC
The shared token that is used to bootstrap keystone is a hardcoded value.

This only used as a fallback (default value in function signature)

This use case is not triggered when keystone is configured in any documented or supported configuration

Comment 1 Tim Suter 2016-11-07 23:18:54 UTC
Statement:

Red Hat Product Security has rated this issue as having Low security
impact.

In versions of openstack-keystone shipped with Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform 6, 7 and Red Hat OpenStack Platform 8 the condition required to create a vulnerable scenario was never met. While it is possible to create a vulnerable scenario, the level of access required to create the scenario exceeds that of the access obtained.

This issue did not affect versions of openstack-keystone shipped with Red Hat OpenStack Platform 9 and 10.

This issue is not currently planned to be addressed in future updates. For additional information, refer to the Issue Severity Classification: https://access.redhat.com/security/updates/classification/.
