GHSA-CQ4P-VP5Q-4522
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2023-01-25 19:36 – Updated: 2023-02-15 18:40Impact
This issue affects Rancher versions from 2.5.0 up to and including 2.5.16, from 2.6.0 up to and including 2.6.9 and 2.7.0. It was discovered that the security advisory CVE-2021-36782 (GHSA-g7j7-h4q8-8w2f), previously released by Rancher, missed addressing some sensitive fields, secret tokens, encryption keys, and SSH keys that were still being stored in plaintext directly on Kubernetes objects like Clusters.
The exposed credentials are visible in Rancher to authenticated Cluster Owners, Cluster Members, Project Owners and Project Members of that cluster on the endpoints:
/v1/management.cattle.io.cluster/v1/management.cattle.io.clustertemplaterevisions
The remaining sensitive fields are now stripped from Clusters and other objects and moved to a Secret before the object is stored. The Secret is retrieved when the credential is needed. For objects that existed before this security fix, a one-time migration happens on startup.
The fields that have been addressed by this security fix are:
Cluster.Spec.RancherKubernetesEngineConfig.Services.KubeAPI.SecretsEncryptionConfig.CustomConfig.Providers[].AESGCM.Keys[].SecretCluster.Spec.RancherKubernetesEngineConfig.Services.KubeAPI.SecretsEncryptionConfig.CustomConfig.Providers[].AESCBC.Keys[].SecretCluster.Spec.RancherKubernetesEngineConfig.Services.KubeAPI.SecretsEncryptionConfig.CustomConfig.Providers[].SecretboxConfiguration.Keys[].SecretCluster.Spec.RancherKubernetesEngineConfig.Services.Kubelet.ExtraEnvwhen containing theAWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEYenvironment variableCluster.Spec.RancherKubernetesEngineConfig.BastionHost.SSHKeyCluster.Spec.RancherKubernetesEngineConfig.PrivateRegistries[].ECRCredentialPlugin.AwsSecretAccessKeyCluster.Spec.RancherKubernetesEngineConfig.PrivateRegistries[].ECRCredentialPlugin.AwsSessionTokenCluster.Spec.RancherKubernetesEngineConfig.Network.AciNetworkProvider.ApicUserKeyCluster.Spec.RancherKubernetesEngineConfig.Network.AciNetworkProvider.KafkaClientKeyCluster.Spec.RancherKubernetesEngineConfig.Network.AciNetworkProvider.Token
Important:
-
For the exposure of credentials not related to Rancher, the final impact severity for confidentiality, integrity and availability is dependent on the permissions the leaked credentials have on their services.
-
It is recommended to review for potentially leaked credentials in this scenario and to change them if deemed necessary.
Workarounds
There is no direct mitigation besides updating Rancher to a patched version.
Patches
Patched versions include releases 2.5.17, 2.6.10, 2.7.1 and later versions.
After upgrading to a patched version, it is important to check for the ACISecretsMigrated and RKESecretsMigrated conditions on Clusters and ClusterTemplateRevisions to confirm when secrets have been fully migrated off of those objects, and the objects scoped within them.

Mitigation
Avoid storing passwords in easily accessible locations.
Mitigation
Consider storing cryptographic hashes of passwords as an alternative to storing in plaintext.
Mitigation
A programmer might attempt to remedy the password management problem by obscuring the password with an encoding function, such as base 64 encoding, but this effort does not adequately protect the password because the encoding can be detected and decoded easily.
