| Vector | AV:L/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Salt masters versions prior to 3005.2 or 3006.2
Description
The issue is related to Git Providers in Salt masters, where they can read from the wrong environment due to the same cache directory base name. This can lead to garbage data or the wrong data being retrieved, resulting in wrongful data disclosure, wrongful executions, data corruption, and/or crashes. The vulnerability is associated with a lack of protection for service data, which can allow an attacker to disclose protected information.
Recommendations
For versions prior to 3005.2, update to version 3005.2 or later to resolve the issue.
For versions prior to 3006.2, update to version 3006.2 or later to resolve the issue.
As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to Git Providers to minimize the risk of exploitation.
