    Package        : keystone
    CVE ID         : CVE-2026-90460

    A vulnerability was discovered in the handling of delegated
    authentication in Keystone, the OpenStack identity service, which may
    result in information disclosure of privilege escalation.

    For the stable distribution (trixie), this problem has been fixed in
    version 2:27.0.0-3+deb13u6.

    We recommend that you upgrade your keystone packages.

    For the detailed security status of keystone please refer to
    its security tracker page at:
    https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/keystone

    Further information about Debian Security Advisories, how to apply
    these updates to your system and frequently asked questions can be
    found at: https://www.debian.org/security/

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Debian security advisory.
