Original NVD Description

The trove service user in (1) Openstack deployment (aka crowbar-openstack) and (2) Trove Barclamp (aka barclamp-trove and crowbar-barclamp-trove) in the Crowbar Framework has a default password, which makes it easier for remote attackers to obtain access via unspecified vectors.
