CVE-2026-43001
An issue was discovered in OpenStack Keystone before 29.0.2. POST /v3/credentials did not validate that the caller-supplied project_id for an EC2-type credential matched the project of the authenticating application credential. This allowed an attacker holding an unrestricted application credential for project A to create an EC2 credential targeting project B; a subsequent /v3/ec2tokens exchange would then issue a Keystone token scoped to project B while still carrying the original app_cred_id, enabling cross-project lateral movement within the credential owner's role footprint.
CVSS
- Versión: 3.1
- Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:H/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H
- Puntuación base: 8
Probabilidad de explotación (EPSS)
- Probabilidad de explotación en los próximos 30 días: 0.59%
- Percentil entre todas las CVEs puntuadas: 46
- Fecha de la puntuación: 6/10/2026
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, de FIRST) estima la probabilidad de que una vulnerabilidad sea explotada en 30 días. Complementa a CVSS (impacto) y a CISA KEV (explotación confirmada).
🎯 Técnicas ATT&CK
Cómo se explota esta vulnerabilidad y qué consigue el atacante, en el lenguaje de MITRE ATT&CK.
- Explotación
T1210Exploitation of Remote Serviceslateral movement85 % - Impacto principal
T1078Valid Accountsstealth · persistence · privilege escalation · initial access90 % - Impacto secundario
T1068Exploitation for Privilege Escalationprivilege escalation75 %
AV:N/PR:H indica acceso remoto con privilegios elevados (application credential válido); la falta de validación de project_id permite escalada lateral a otros proyectos, obteniendo tokens en proyecto destino.
Inferido por nuestro agente de análisis a partir de la descripción oficial, el vector CVSS y la CWE, y comprobado por un supervisor. Puede contener errores.
