| Vector | AV:N/AC:H/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:N/SC:L/SI:N/SA:N |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Traefik versions prior to 2.11.43
Traefik versions prior to 3.6.14
Traefik versions prior to 3.7.0-rc.2
Description
A timing side-channel issue exists in the BasicAuth middleware. A variable meant to provide a constant-time fallback secret consistently resolves to an empty string, which causes the constant-time comparison to short-circuit quickly instead of completing a full bcrypt evaluation. This creates a timing oracle, allowing an attacker to enumerate valid usernames by measuring differences in authentication response times.
Recommendations
Update to version 2.11.43
Update to version 3.6.14
Update to version 3.7.0-rc.2
