1. Summary:

An update for openstack-aodh is now available for Red Hat OpenStack
Platform 10.0 (Newton).

gives a detailed severity rating, is available for each vulnerability from

2. Relevant releases/architectures:

Red Hat OpenStack Platform 10.0 - noarch

3. Description:

openstack-aodh provides the ability to trigger actions based on defined
rules against metric or event data collected by OpenStack Telemetry
(ceilometer) or Time-Series-Database-as-a-Service (gnocchi).

Security Fix(es):

* A verification flaw was found in openstack-aodh. As part of an HTTP alarm
action, a user could pass in a trust ID. However, the trust could be from
anyone because it was not verified. Because the trust was then used by
openstack-aodh to obtain a keystone token for the alarm action, a malicious
user could pass in another person's trust ID and obtain a keystone token
containing the delegated authority of that user. (CVE-2017-12440)

This issue was discovered by Luke Hinds (Red Hat). Upstream acknowledges
Zane Bitter (Red Hat) as the original reporter.
