Red Hat: 2013:1083-01: openstack-keystone: Important Advisory
Summary
The openstack-keystone packages provide Keystone, a Python implementation
of the OpenStack identity service API, which provides Identity, Token,
Catalog, and Policy services.
A flaw was found in the way Keystone handled LDAP (Lightweight Directory
Access Protocol) based authentication. If Keystone was configured to use
LDAP authentication, and the LDAP server was configured to allow anonymous
binds (anonymous binds is a common default), anyone able to connect to a
given service using Keystone could connect as any user, including the
admin, without supplying a password. (CVE-2013-2157)
Red Hat would like to thank Thierry Carrez of OpenStack upstream for
reporting this issue. Upstream acknowledges Jose Castro Leon of CERN as
the original reporter.
All users of openstack-keystone are advised to upgrade to these updated
packages, which correct this issue. After installing the updated packages,
the Keystone service (openstack-keystone) will be restarted automatically.
