Insecure Certificate Verification in OpenStack Keystone Middleware

Insecure Certificate Verification in OpenStack Keystone Middleware

CVE-2015-1852 · MEDIUM Severity

AV:N/AC:M/AU:N/C:N/I:P/A:N

The s3_token middleware in OpenStack keystonemiddleware before 1.6.0 and python-keystoneclient before 1.4.0 disables certification verification when the "insecure" option is set in a paste configuration (paste.ini) file regardless of the value, which allows remote attackers to conduct man-in-the-middle attacks via a crafted certificate, a different vulnerability than CVE-2014-7144.
