medium Nessus Plugin ID 66495

Language:

Synopsis

The remote Ubuntu host is missing a security-related patch.

Description

Sam Stoelinga discovered that Keystone would not immediately invalidate tokens when deleting users via the v2 API. A deleted user would be able to continue to use resources until the token lifetime expired.

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

Solution

Update the affected python-keystone package.
