The ReST API in OpenStack Orchestration API (Heat) before Havana 2013.2.1 and Icehouse before icehouse-2 allows remote authenticated users to bypass the tenant scoping restrictions via a modified tenant_id in the request path.

Security readout for executives and security teams

OpenStack Heat had a tenant boundary flaw: an authenticated user could change the tenant_id in an API path and bypass tenant scoping. In a multi-tenant cloud, this could undermine isolation between customers or projects. The provided sources do not show public exploitation or a CVSS score. Exposure is most likely in older OpenStack environments running Heat before Havana 2013.2.1 or before Icehouse icehouse-2, especially multi-tenant deployments where authenticated users can reach the Heat API. Treat this as important for legacy OpenStack clouds. It affects tenant isolation, a core control in shared cloud environments, but the provided evidence does not support emergency active-exploitation handling. Mitigation focus: Upgrade OpenStack Heat to Havana 2013.2.1, Icehouse icehouse-2, or later fixed vendor packages.; Apply relevant vendor advisories, including RHSA-2014:0090 where Red Hat packages are used.; Restrict Heat API access to trusted authenticated users while remediation is completed..
