Descriptions

The TripleO Heat templates (tripleo-heat-templates), as used in Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform 7.0, do not properly use the configured RabbitMQ credentials, which makes it easier for remote attackers to obtain access to services in deployed overclouds by leveraging knowledge of the default credentials.

Las plantillas TripleO Heat (tripleo-heat-templates), según se utiliza en Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform 7.0, no utiliza correctamente las credenciales RabbitMQ configuradas, lo que facilita a atacantes remotos obtener acceso a servicios en overclouds desplegadas aprovechándose del conocimiento de las credenciales por defecto.

A flaw was found in the director (openstack-tripleo-heat-templates) where the RabbitMQ credentials defaulted to guest/guest and supplied values in the configuration were not used. As a result, all deployed overclouds used the same credentials (guest/guest). A remote non-authenticated attacker could use this flaw to access RabbitMQ services in the deployed cloud.

Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform director provides the facilities for deploying and monitoring a private or public infrastructure-as-a-service cloud based on Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform. It was discovered that the director's NeutronMetadataProxySharedSecret parameter remained specified at the default value of 'unset'. This value is used by OpenStack Networking to sign instance headers; if unchanged, an attacker knowing the shared secret could use this flaw to spoof OpenStack Networking metadata requests.
