Severity: low

Description:

Apache CloudStack prior to 4.16.1.0 used insecure random number generation for 
project invitation tokens. If a project invite is created based only on an 
email address, a random token is generated. An attacker with knowledge of the 
project ID and the fact that the invite is sent, could generate time 
deterministic tokens and brute force attempt to use them prior to the 
legitimate receiver accepting the invite. This feature is not enabled by 
default, the attacker is required to know or guess the project ID for the 
invite in addition to the invitation token, and the attacker would need to be 
an existing authorized user of CloudStack.
