CVE-2017-8761
Description
A flaw was found in openstack-swift, where the proxy server logs valid temporary URLs, that might be used to gain access to data by anyone with access to the logfiles. This is especially important with tempurls that are valid for extended periods or when using central logging servers, accessed by operators that have no access to the Swift servers. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to confidentiality.
Statement
Openstack Swift is no longer supported with the recent release of Red Hat Gluster Storage 3.5, hence openstack-swift will not be updated for this flaw.
Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) Score Details
Info alert:Important note
CVSS scores for open source components depend on vendor-specific factors (e.g. version or build chain). Therefore, Red Hat's score and impact rating can be different from NVD and other vendors. Red Hat remains the authoritative CVE Naming Authority (CNA) source for its products and services (see Red Hat classifications).
The following CVSS metrics and score provided are preliminary and subject to review.
