keystone/middleware/auth_token.py in OpenStack Nova Folsom, Grizzly, and Havana uses an insecure temporary directory for storing signing certificates, which allows local users to spoof servers by pre-creating this directory, which is reused by Nova, as demonstrated using /tmp/keystone-signing-nova on Fedora.

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2013-2030 is an old OpenStack Nova issue where the Keystone authentication middleware used an unsafe temporary directory for signing certificates. On affected Nova Folsom, Grizzly, and Havana systems, a local user could influence that directory before Nova used it, creating a server-spoofing risk. Exposure is most likely in legacy OpenStack Nova Folsom, Grizzly, or Havana deployments using affected Keystone middleware defaults. Systems without local untrusted users, or systems updated after the 2013 advisories, are less likely exposed. Treat this as a legacy platform hygiene issue unless affected OpenStack hosts still exist. Prioritize validation for old private cloud environments with shell users, shared administrative hosts, or long-lived Fedora/OpenStack packages. Mitigation focus: Check OpenStack and Fedora advisory guidance for the affected Nova packages.; Update affected Nova or Keystone middleware packages where vendor fixes are available.; Avoid shared, pre-creatable temporary directories for signing certificate storage..
