Hello, thank you for such fast fixes :)

I'm not entirely sure what is the attack scenario for the OAuth case, so I leave it out of this first draft.
Can someone confirm there is a vulnerability specifics to the OAuth process? Or is it already covered by the following description ?

Here is the impact description draft #1:

Title: Keystone trust chained delegation privilege escalation
Reporter: Steven Hardy (RedHat)
Products: Keystone
Versions: up to 2013.2.3, and 2014.1

Description:
Steven Hardy from RedHat reported a vulnerability in Keystone chained delegation. By chaining delegation from a trust token, a trustee may circumvent the enforced scope, resulting in potential elevated privileges to any of the trustor's roles. All keystone setups are affected.
