keystone: An issue was discovered in OpenStack Keystone before 29.0.2
CVE-2026-42999 is fixed in 3 products on 1 platform, first by keystone 2:29.0.0-0ubuntu1.2, released May 28, 2026. It is not reported as exploited. Patch Radar priority: High.
An issue was discovered in OpenStack Keystone before 29.0.2. The Keystone RBAC policy enforcer in enforce_call unconditionally merges the raw JSON request body into the policy enforcement dictionary via policy_dict.update(json_input.copy()), overwriting trusted target data that was previously set from database lookups. Because flask.request.get_json is called with force=True, this works regardless of Content-Type or HTTP method. Any authenticated user can inject arbitrary policy target attributes (e.g., user_id, project_id) into the request body to bypass RBAC checks and perform unauthorized operations on resources belonging to other users or projects. This was introduced in commit 5ea59f52 (Rocky/14.0.0).
