GHSA-GHFH-FMX4-26H8
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2025-10-22 19:37 – Updated: 2025-10-23 17:38Impact
OpenBao's audit log experienced a regression wherein raw HTTP bodies used by few endpoints were not correctly redacted (HMAC'd). This impacted the following subsystems:
- When using the ACME functionality of PKI, this would result in short-lived ACME verification challenge codes being leaked in the audit logs.
- When using the OIDC issuer functionality of the identity subsystem, auth and token response codes along with claims could be leaked in the audit logs.
Third-party plugins may be affected.
Patches
OpenBao v2.4.2 will patch this issue.
Workarounds
If users do not use the above functionality, they are not impacted. ACME verification codes are not usable after verification or challenge expiry so are of limited long-term use.

GHSA-GJ6X-Q8RH-WJ6X
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-02-26 22:48 – Updated: 2026-02-26 22:48Summary
Multiple HTTP handlers in Curio passed raw database error messages to HTTP clients via http.Error(). When the PostgreSQL/YugabyteDB driver (pgx) returned errors, these could contain the database connection string — including hostname, port, username, and password. Additionally, the internal connection string was constructed with the plaintext password embedded in the URL, which was also included in startup error messages and could surface in logs.
Details
Three components were affected:
-
PDP handlers (
pdp/handlers.go) — 18+ HTTP error paths passederr.Error()directly to HTTP responses. While these endpoints require ECDSA JWT authentication, an authenticated client (e.g., a FilPay service) that triggered a database error would receive the raw pgx error in the HTTP response body. Present since PDP was introduced in v1.25.1. -
Market mk12 deal status (
market/mk12/mk12_utils.go) — TheGetDealStatushandler includederr.Error()in error responses:"failed to query the db for deal status: %s". Present since v1.24.3. -
Market mk20 auth middleware (
market/mk20/http/http.go) — Authentication error responses includederr.Error(), potentially leaking database error details during auth flows. Present since v1.27.2.
Root Cause
The database connection string was constructed as:
postgresql://username:password@host:port/database?...
The plaintext password was embedded directly in the URL. When pgx returned connection or query errors, the error text could contain fragments of this connection string. HTTP handlers forwarded these errors verbatim to clients.
Impact
An attacker with network access to Curio's PDP or Market HTTP endpoints and valid authentication credentials could intentionally trigger database errors (e.g., by sending malformed requests that cause SQL failures) and extract the YugabyteDB connection credentials from the error response. With these credentials, the attacker could directly access the database, which serves as Curio's control plane.
Per Curio's security boundary documentation, these endpoints are expected to be on a trusted network. However, defense-in-depth requires that credentials are never exposed through HTTP responses regardless of network trust assumptions.
Remediation (PR #919)
-
Connection string password masking: The password in the connection string is replaced with
********. The real password is set separately viacfg.ConnConfig.Password, so it never appears in error messages or logs. -
HTTP handler sanitization: All affected handlers now log the detailed error server-side and return a generic error message to the HTTP client.
-
Error filter (
errFilter): A new function in the database layer detects and redacts any error messages containing keywords like "password", "host", "port", or "://" before they can propagate. -
Prometheus metrics cleanup: Database connection metrics that could expose connection details were removed from the metrics endpoint.
-
Security boundary documentation: A new section documents what Curio expects operators to secure.
Resources
- Fix: https://github.com/filecoin-project/curio/pull/919
- Patched release: v1.27.3-rc2

GHSA-GP6C-FP2M-24Q3
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2022-05-17 02:55 – Updated: 2022-05-17 02:55An issue was discovered in OSIsoft PI Coresight 2016 R2 and earlier versions, and PI Web API 2016 R2 when deployed using the PI AF Services 2016 R2 integrated install kit. An information exposure through server log files vulnerability has been identified, which may allow service account passwords to become exposed for the affected services, potentially leading to unauthorized shutdown of the affected PI services as well as potential reuse of domain credentials.

Mitigation
Consider seriously the sensitivity of the information written into log files. Do not write secrets into the log files.
Mitigation
Remove debug log files before deploying the application into production.
Mitigation
Protect log files against unauthorized read/write.
Mitigation
Adjust configurations appropriately when software is transitioned from a debug state to production.
CAPEC-215: Fuzzing for application mapping
An attacker sends random, malformed, or otherwise unexpected messages to a target application and observes the application's log or error messages returned. The attacker does not initially know how a target will respond to individual messages but by attempting a large number of message variants they may find a variant that trigger's desired behavior. In this attack, the purpose of the fuzzing is to observe the application's log and error messages, although fuzzing a target can also sometimes cause the target to enter an unstable state, causing a crash.
