Thanks for the heads-up! :) /Tobias On 25 Aug 2025, at 18:12, Dmitriy Rabotyagov <noonedeadpunk@gmail.com> wrote: Hey folks, I wanted to raise awareness of operators regarding Keystone upgrade to Epoxy (2025.1), as found that existing release notes are slightly more vague about corner case definition. During analysis, it appeared that a lot of users (and under "a lot" I mean 4 figures number) in my really old deployments (which were deployed during Newton), still in use passwords hashed with sha512_crypt which has been dropped in 2025.1 [1]. As this was referenced as a "corner case" in upgrade docs, it may not bring enough attention to this matter reading notes, while sha512_crypt removal is mentioned in "Other" section which I personally missed when analyzing upgrade requirements. So I would highly recommend to ensure that all your users are using supported hashing algorithms before the upgrade to Epoxy, and inform them to reset their passwords if they don't. You can list users who are using unsupported hashing algorithm using following MySQL query: SELECT distinct l_u.user_id FROM keystone.local_user AS l_u JOIN keystone.password AS hash ON l_u.id<http://l_u.id/> = hash.local_user_id WHERE (hash.password_hash LIKE '$6$%' OR hash.password_hash LIKE '$5$%') AND hash.expires_at i s null; Hope this helps somebody to save some time in the future.
