An App Cred ID is different in that it is more analogous to a User ID
than to a Trust ID.  An App Cred is more comparable to the union of the
trustee user and the trust together.

Title:
  Trusts GET API leaks existence information to unauthorized users

Status in OpenStack Identity (keystone):
  In Progress
Status in OpenStack Security Advisory:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  The current implementation of the GET /v3/OS-TRUST/trusts/{trust_id}
  API leaks information about the existence of a trust to unauthorized
  users.

  If an authenticated user requests a trust that either does not exist
  or has no remaining uses, the returned response is a 404 regardless of
  whether the user is an admin or a trustor/trustee of the hypothetical
  (e.g. soft-deleted or used-up) trust. If the trust does exist but the
  user has no access to it, the returned response is a 403. If an
  attacker had some reasonable way of guessing or brute-forcing the UUID
  of a trust, they could use this leak to confirm its existence. A valid
  trust ID can then be used as part of a token request in combination
  with the trustee's credentials.

  The issue is here:

  https://opendev.org/openstack/keystone/src/commit/5beddfaddbb4c59d7a24fa1d7ff534da4c69ddc5/keystone/api/trusts.py#L149-L150

  The current "identity:get_trust" default policy rule is "" which is
  all-permissive, and authorization is hardcoded in the trust controller
  code. To enforce the "only the trustor or trustee can GET this" rule,
  it does a lookup of the trust and doesn't catch a NotFound, thereby
  leaking it directly back to the requester.
