SCA: security update for keystone (GHSA-6m8p-x4qw-gh5j)

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 411519

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

 - An issue was discovered in OpenStack Keystone before 15.0.1, and 16.0.0. The list of roles provided for an
 OAuth1 access token is silently ignored. Thus, when an access token is used to request a keystone token,
 the keystone token contains every role assignment the creator had for the project. This results in the
 provided keystone token having more role assignments than the creator intended, possibly giving unintended
 escalated access. (CVE-2020-12690)
