NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream python-keystoneclient package and not the python-keystoneclient package as distributed by Ubuntu.

The auth_token middleware in the OpenStack Python client library for Keystone (aka python-keystoneclient) before 0.7.0 does not properly retrieve user tokens from memcache, which allows remote authenticated users to gain privileges in opportunistic circumstances via a large number of requests, related to an "interaction between eventlet and python-memcached."
