Moderate severity GitHub Reviewed Published May 15, 2024 in fluxcd/source-controller • Updated May 15, 2024

Package

gomod github.com/fluxcd/source-controller (Go)

Affected versions

< 1.2.5

Patched versions

1.2.5

Description

Impact

When source-controller is configured to use an Azure SAS token when connecting to Azure Blob Storage, the token was logged along with the Azure URL when the controller encountered a connection error. An attacker with access to the source-controller logs could use the token to gain access to the Azure Blob Storage until the token expires.

Patches

This vulnerability was fixed in source-controller v1.2.5.

Workarounds

There is no workaround for this vulnerability except for using a different auth mechanism such as Azure Workload Identity.

CVSS v3 base metrics

Attack vector: More severe the more the remote (logically and physically) an attacker can be in order to exploit the vulnerability.
Attack complexity: More severe for the least complex attacks.
Privileges required: More severe if no privileges are required.
User interaction: More severe when no user interaction is required.
Scope: More severe when a scope change occurs, e.g. one vulnerable component impacts resources in components beyond its security scope.
Confidentiality: More severe when loss of data confidentiality is highest, measuring the level of data access available to an unauthorized user.
Integrity: More severe when loss of data integrity is the highest, measuring the consequence of data modification possible by an unauthorized user.
Availability: More severe when the loss of impacted component availability is highest.
