Overview

keystone is a package that provides authentication, authorization and service discovery mechanisms via HTTP primarily for use by projects in the OpenStack family.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Incorrect Privilege Assignment through the improper validation of delegated roles in the trust creation process. An attacker can obtain administrative privileges and maintain persistent access by chaining application credential impersonation with trust exploitation.
