CVE-2012-5563
OpenStack Keystone, as used in OpenStack Folsom 2012.2, does not properly implement token expiration, which allows remote authenticated users to bypass intended authorization restrictions by creating new tokens through token chaining.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (2.86%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
