Security readout for executives and security teams
CVE-2013-1815 is a local integrity issue in Red Hat PackStack. During OpenStack deployment, PackStack could create an answer file in insecure locations such as /tmp or the current directory, letting a local user alter deployment behavior and make unauthorized system changes. Exposure is most likely in legacy Red Hat OpenStack environments using PackStack for deployment or configuration, especially where local users share deployment hosts or writable working directories. Internet-facing exposure is not indicated because local access is required. Treat this as a moderate priority for legacy OpenStack environments. It is not remotely exploitable from the supplied evidence, but compromise of deployment configuration can create material operational risk on affected infrastructure. Mitigation focus: Apply the relevant Red Hat advisory updates for openstack-packstack where available.; Retire or isolate unsupported Red Hat OpenStack Platform 4 and 5 deployments.; Avoid running PackStack from shared writable directories such as /tmp..

Creation of Temporary File in Directory with Insecure Permissions
Creation of Temporary File in Directory with Insecure Permissions represents a recurring weakness pattern that can create exploitable paths when design, validation, or implementation controls are missing.
