Thanks Matt, Michael,

To start with, lets look quickly at the more recent OSSNs that are marked as 
work in progress, namely 63,64,65 and 66 – these should all be published within 
a week or so.

Looking further back we have the more difficult OSSNs 50 and 51, I’m not 100% 
sure what the blockers are on these.  I believe 
https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/OSSN/OSSN-0056 may supersede OSSN-0051 and is 
rooted in bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ossn/+bug/1435530 - it looks to me 
like OSSN-0056 was written during a mid-cycle and could be the right one.

I’m struggling to work out the story behind OSSN-0050 – I’m adding Nathan 
Kinder who might be able to shed more light on this.

Subject: [Openstack-security] abandoned OSSNs?

Some folks from our security team here asked me to ensure them that our 
services were patched for all the OSSNs that are listed here: 
https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Security_Notes

Most of these are straight-forward, but there are some OSSNs that have been 
allocated an ID but then abandoned. There is no detailed wiki page and my best 
google efforts lead me to a possible IRC mention and maybe an abandoned review. 
The two specifically are OSSN-50/51.

So what am I to do with an "abandoned" OSSN? Has it been decided that there is 
no issue anymore? These are pretty old if I look at the dates framing the other 
OSSNs (49/52), so I assume they aren't urgent. Can we ignore these? They sound 
somewhat scary, for example, "keystonemiddleware can allow access after token 
revocation" but I have no means to say whether it affects us or how we can 
mitigate without more info.

Thoughts?
