GHSA-9WH7-397J-722M

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2023-04-26 19:46 – Updated: 2023-04-26 19:46

Summary

Ironic and ironic-inspector may expose as ConfigMaps

Details

Impact

Ironic and ironic-inspector deployed within Baremetal Operator using the included deploy.sh store their .htpasswd files as ConfigMaps instead of Secrets. This causes the plain-text username and hashed password to be readable by anyone having a cluster-wide read-access to the management cluster, or access to the management cluster's Etcd storage.

Patches

This issue is patched in baremetal-operator PR#1241, and is included in BMO release 0.3.0 onwards.

Workarounds

User may modify the kustomizations and redeploy the BMO, or recreate the required ConfigMaps as Secrets per instructions in baremetal-operator PR#1241

Severity

6.0 (Medium)

CVE-2023-30841 (GCVE-0-2023-30841)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2023-04-26 18:24 – Updated: 2025-01-30 21:30

Title

Ironic and ironic-inspector deployed within Baremetal Operator may expose as ConfigMaps

Summary

Baremetal Operator (BMO) is a bare metal host provisioning integration for Kubernetes. Prior to version 0.3.0, ironic and ironic-inspector deployed within Baremetal Operator using the included `deploy.sh` store their `.htpasswd` files as ConfigMaps instead of Secrets. This causes the plain-text username and hashed password to be readable by anyone having a cluster-wide read-access to the management cluster, or access to the management cluster's Etcd storage. This issue is patched in baremetal-operator PR#1241, and is included in BMO release 0.3.0 onwards. As a workaround, users may modify the kustomizations and redeploy the BMO, or recreate the required ConfigMaps as Secrets per instructions in baremetal-operator PR#1241.
