Description
From CVE.org
OpenStack Identity (Keystone) before 2014.1.5 and 2014.2.x before 2014.2.4 logs the backend_argument configuration option content, which allows remote authenticated users to obtain passwords and other sensitive backend information by reading the Keystone logs.
Statement
While this issue does occur in openstack-keystone packages as shipped in Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform versions 5 and 6 it is not believed to be exploitable as access to the keystone logs is restricted with file-system permissions.
