CVE-2024-41129 (GCVE-0-2024-41129)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2024-07-22 14:20 – Updated: 2024-08-02 04:46

Title

The ops library leaks secrets if `subprocess.CalledProcessError` happens with a `secret-*` CLI command

Summary

The ops library is a Python framework for developing and testing Kubernetes and machine charms. The issue here is that ops passes the secret content as one of the args via CLI. This issue may affect any of the charms that are using: Juju (>=3.0), Juju secrets and not correctly capturing and processing `subprocess.CalledProcessError`. This vulnerability is fixed in 2.15.0.

Severity ?

4.4 (Medium)

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2024-07-22 17:40 – Updated: 2024-07-22 17:40

Summary

ops leaking secrets if `subprocess.CalledProcessError` happens with a `secret-*` CLI command

Details

Summary

The issue here is that we pass the secret content as one of the args via CLI. This issue may affect any of our charms that are using: Juju (>=3.0), Juju secrets and not correctly capturing and processing subprocess.CalledProcessError.

There are two points that may log this command, in different files:

First, if there is an error during a secret handling, there will be a subprocess.CalledProcessError, which will contain the CLI comand + all its args. This is going to be logged in any logging level. This exception, if not caught by the charm, will bubble up to the /var/log/juju/ logs and syslog journal. Now, on Ubuntu 22.04, these logs are protected with:

$ juju ssh -m controller 0 -- ls -la /var/log/juju/
total 224
drwxr-xr-x 2 syslog adm      4096 Jul 14 10:59 .
drwxrwxr-x 9 root   syslog   4096 Jul 14 10:58 ..
-rw-r----- 1 syslog adm     20124 Jul 14 11:10 audit.log
-rw-r----- 1 syslog adm    110432 Jul 14 11:10 logsink.log
-rw-r----- 1 syslog adm     80783 Jul 14 11:06 machine-0.log
-rw-r----- 1 syslog adm       766 Jul 14 11:10 machine-lock.log
-rw-r--r-- 1 root   root        0 Jul 14 10:59 slow-query.log
-rw-r----- 1 syslog adm      3732 Jul 14 11:10 unit-controller-0.log

Second, certain audit setups may log terminal commands, which would result in this command being logged with its secrets. It is unknown if this is done on ubuntu security benchmarks, such as CIS hardening.

Keep in mind these logs may be copied or even backed up. Which exposes it to more services in the user's environment (e.g. CI runs in GH - although these are dummy password generated per test only).

Passing secrets straight via CLI is not advised. Here are some ways out: 1) Redacting: which commands and which args represent secrets are known, so they can be redacted. It would also mean capturing a subprocess.CalledProcessError, redacting its content and reissuing the same type of exception; this will not cover the case auditd is set to log CLI commands, if that is a risk 2) Temp files: secret-add, for example, can use a secret file instead, as can be seen here. However, if ops uses a file, ops will need to be sure to correctly remove it later 3) stdin: not sure it is accepted by secret-* commands, but generally, secrets are not shown on CLI whilst typing them; auditd may not capture that stdin

Severity Rationale

This is a CWE-532. Potentially, these secrets can lead to privilege escalation but Ubuntu default is to have logs only accessible to adm group users.

Marking this issue as "Moderate", as this report is not presenting a clear way on how to get access to the logs themselves: either getting local access to an adm group user (e.g. ubuntu) or recovering logs stored on a 3rd party service.

From CI: https://github.com/canonical/opensearch-operator/actions/runs/9908987369/job/27376377521?pr=364

PoC

1) Deploy anything with juju 2) Run a dummy secret-add call that will fail 3) See the uncaught subprocess error

Impact

Juju secrets are generally composed of private keys, passwords, etc; generally valuable credentials that, if leaked, will likely allow an attacker to get privileged access to its target or other targets in the environment.

  "details": "### Summary\n\nThe issue here is that we pass the secret content as one of the args via CLI. This issue may affect any of our charms that are using: Juju (\u003e=3.0), Juju secrets and not correctly capturing and processing `subprocess.CalledProcessError`.\n\nThere are two points that may log this command, in different files:\n\nFirst, if there is an error during a secret handling, there will be a `subprocess.CalledProcessError`, which will contain the CLI comand + all its args. This is going to be logged in any logging level. This exception, if not caught by the charm, will bubble up to the `/var/log/juju/` logs and syslog journal. Now, on Ubuntu 22.04, these logs are protected with:\n```\n$ juju ssh -m controller 0 -- ls -la /var/log/juju/\ntotal 224\ndrwxr-xr-x 2 syslog adm      4096 Jul 14 10:59 .\ndrwxrwxr-x 9 root   syslog   4096 Jul 14 10:58 ..\n-rw-r----- 1 syslog adm     20124 Jul 14 11:10 audit.log\n-rw-r----- 1 syslog adm    110432 Jul 14 11:10 logsink.log\n-rw-r----- 1 syslog adm     80783 Jul 14 11:06 machine-0.log\n-rw-r----- 1 syslog adm       766 Jul 14 11:10 machine-lock.log\n-rw-r--r-- 1 root   root        0 Jul 14 10:59 slow-query.log\n-rw-r----- 1 syslog adm      3732 Jul 14 11:10 unit-controller-0.log\n```\n\nSecond, certain audit setups may log terminal commands, which would result in this command being logged with its secrets. It is unknown if this is done on ubuntu security benchmarks, such as CIS hardening.\n\nKeep in mind these logs may be copied or even backed up. Which exposes it to more services in the user\u0027s environment (e.g. CI runs in GH - although these are dummy password generated per test only).\n\nPassing secrets straight via CLI is not advised. Here are some ways out:\n1) Redacting: which commands and which args represent secrets are known, so they can be redacted. It would also mean capturing a `subprocess.CalledProcessError`, redacting its content and reissuing the same type of exception; this will not cover the case `auditd` is set to log CLI commands, if that is a risk\n2) Temp files: secret-add, for example, can use a secret file instead, [as can be seen here](https://github.com/juju/juju/blob/20b7d944acc985ce91419728529d5fb2abd14d68/cmd/juju/secrets/add.go#L62). However, if ops uses a file, ops will need to be sure to correctly remove it later\n3) stdin: not sure it is accepted by secret-* commands, but generally, secrets are not shown on CLI whilst typing them; auditd may not capture that stdin\n\n### Severity Rationale\n\nThis is a [CWE-532](https://cwe.mitre.org/data/definitions/532.html). Potentially, these secrets can lead to privilege escalation but Ubuntu default is to have logs only accessible to `adm` group users.\n\nMarking this issue as \"Moderate\", as this report is not presenting a clear way on how to get access to the logs themselves: either getting local access to an `adm` group user (e.g. ubuntu) or recovering logs stored on a 3rd party service.\n\n###
