CVE-2020-12689 -- keystoneID: oval:org.secpod.oval:def:2004192 | Date: (C)2020-10-08 (M)2023-11-13 |
Class: VULNERABILITY | Family: unix |
An issue was discovered in OpenStack Keystone before 15.0.1, and 16.0.0. Any user authenticated within a limited scope can create an EC2 credential with an escalated permission, such as obtaining admin while the user is on a limited viewer role. This potentially allows a malicious user to act as the admin on a project another user has the admin role on, which can effectively grant that user global admin privileges.
