Descriptions

OpenStack Identity (Keystone) before 2013.2.4, 2014.1 before 2014.1.2, and Juno before Juno-2 does not properly handle chained delegation, which allows remote authenticated users to gain privileges by leveraging a (1) trust or (2) OAuth token with impersonation enabled to create a new token with additional roles.

OpenStack Identity (Keystone) anterior a 2013.2.4, 2014.1 anterior a 2014.1.2, y Juno anterior a Juno-2 no maneja debidamente la delegaciĆ³n encadenada, lo que permite a usuarios remotos autenticados ganar privilegios mediante el aprovechamiento de un token (1) trust o (2) OAuth con suplantaciĆ³n habilitada para crear un token nuevo con roles adicionales.

A flaw was found in keystone's chained delegation. A trustee able to create a delegation from a trust or an OAuth token could misuse identity impersonation to bypass the enforced scope, possibly allowing them to obtain elevated privileges to the trustor's projects and roles.
