Vulnerability Name:

CVE-2020-12691 (CCN-181611)

Assigned:2020-05-07
Published:2020-05-07
Updated:2022-04-26
Summary:An issue was discovered in OpenStack Keystone before 15.0.1, and 16.0.0. Any authenticated user can create an EC2 credential for themselves for a project that they have a specified role on, and then perform an update to the credential user and project, allowing them to masquerade as another user. 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.
