Vulnerability from github – Published: 2022-12-08 16:11 – Updated: 2022-12-09 15:20Impact
There is a potential vulnerability in Traefik displaying the Authorization header in its debug logs.
Traefik uses oxy to provide the following features:
- Round Robin: https://doc.traefik.io/traefik/routing/services/#weighted-round-robin-service
- Buffering: https://doc.traefik.io/traefik/middlewares/http/buffering/
- Circuit Breaker: https://doc.traefik.io/traefik/middlewares/http/circuitbreaker/
- In-Flight Requests: https://doc.traefik.io/traefik/middlewares/http/inflightreq/
In such cases, if the log level is set to DEBUG, the credentials provided using the Authorization header are displayed in the debug logs:
level=debug msg="vulcand/oxy/roundrobin/rr: completed ServeHttp on request" Request="{\\"Method\\":\\"POST\\",\\"URL\\":{\\"Scheme\\":\\"\\",\\"Opaque\\":\\"\\",\\"User\\":null,\\"Host\\":\\"\\",\\"Path\\":\\"/<redacted>/<redacted>\\",\\"RawPath\\":\\"\\",\\"ForceQuery\\":false,\\"RawQuery\\":\\"\\",\\"Fragment\\":\\"\\",\\"RawFragment\\":\\"\\"},\\"Proto\\":\\"HTTP/2.0\\",\\"ProtoMajor\\":2,\\"ProtoMinor\\":0,\\"Header\\":{\\"Authorization\\":[\\"Bearer <token value was here>\\"],\\"Content-Type\\":[\\"application/grpc\\"],\\"Grpc-Accept-Encoding\\":[\\"gzip\\"],\\"Grpc-Timeout\\":[\\"29999886u\\"],\\"Te\\":[\\"trailers\\"],\\"User-Agent\\":[\\"<redacted>\\"],<remainder of log message removed>

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2024-01-30 20:57 – Updated: 2024-03-04 18:45Summary
Hello 👋
goreleaser release --debug log shows secret values used in the in the custom publisher.
How to reproduce the issue:
- Define a custom publisher as the one below. Make sure to provide a custom script to the
cmdfield and to provide a secret toenv
#.goreleaser.yml
publishers:
- name: my-publisher
# IDs of the artifacts we want to sign
ids:
- linux_archives
- linux_package
cmd: "./build/package/linux_notarize.sh"
env:
- VERSION={{ .Version }}
- SECRET_1={{.Env.SECRET_1}}
- SECRET_2={{.Env.SECRET_2}}
- run
goreleaser release --debug
You should see your secret value in the gorelease log. The log shows also the GITHUB_TOKEN
Example:
running cmd= ....
SECRET_1=secret_value

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.
