CVE-2014-7231: OpenStack Oslo utility sensitive information exposure via log files

May 14, 2022 (updated May 14, 2024)

The strutils.mask_password function in the OpenStack Oslo utility library, Cinder, Nova, and Trove before 2013.2.4 and 2014.1 before 2014.1.3 does not properly mask passwords when logging commands, which allows local users to obtain passwords by reading the log.
