NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream openstack-tripleo-heat-templates package and not the openstack-tripleo-heat-templates package as distributed by RHEL. See How to fix? for RHEL:7 relevant fixed versions and status.

A resource-permission flaw was found in the openstack-tripleo-heat-templates package where ceph.client.openstack.keyring is created as world-readable. A local attacker with access to the key could read or modify data on Ceph cluster pools for OpenStack as though the attacker were the OpenStack service, thus potentially reading or modifying data in an OpenStack Block Storage volume.
