A flaw was found in openstack-keystone. Only the first 72 characters of an application secret are verified allowing attackers bypass some password complexity which administrators may be counting on. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data confidentiality and integrity.

The version of Tencent Linux installed on the remote TencentOS Server 4 host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the TSSA-2025:0054 advisory.

    Package updates are available for TencentOS Server 4 that fix the following vulnerabilities:

    Brief introduction

    CVE-2021-3563

        A flaw was found in openstack-keystone. Only the first 72 characters         of an application secret are verified allowing attackers bypass some         password complexity which administrators may be counting on.
        The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data confidentiality         and integrity.

    CVE-2021-38155

        Keystone allowed information disclosure during account locking         (related to PCI DSS features). By guessing the name of an account         and failing to authenticate multiple times, any unauthenticated actor         could both confirm the account exists and obtain that account's         corresponding UUID, which might be leveraged for other unrelated         attacks. All deployments enabling         security_compliance.lockout_failure_attempts are affected.

    For Debian 10 buster, these problems have been fixed in version     2:14.2.0-0+deb10u2.

    We recommend that you upgrade your keystone packages.
