Placing Unicode-bypass files in a workspace requires at least local write access, warranting PR:L over PR:N; C:H retained as secrets exposure is realistic; no integrity or availability impact applies.

HashiCorp go-slug 0.4.0 through 0.18.2 could allow a local attacker to bypass .terraformignore exclusions and cause sensitive files to be included in Terraform slug uploads due to improper handling of Unicode normalization during path matching.
AnalysisAI
Unicode normalization mishandling in HashiCorp go-slug versions 0.4.0 through 0.18.2 enables a local attacker to circumvent .terraformignore exclusion rules, causing sensitive files to be silently bundled into Terraform slug uploads destined for remote backends. Exploitation requires local filesystem write access to the Terraform working directory and a legitimate operator triggering a slug upload operation - the CVSS vector confirms AV:L/UI:R, narrowing the realistic attack surface to shared workstations, multi-tenant CI/CD environments, or compromised developer machines. …

Attack ChainAIDerived
Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Three concurrent conditions are required for exploitation: (1) the attacker must have local write access to the Terraform working directory, enabling placement of files with Unicode-normalized path components that bypass ignore rules - single-user workstations with exclusive directory ownership are not realistically exploitable; (2) the working directory must have a .terraformignore file with active exclusion rules, as the vulnerability only manifests when path-matching logic is invoked against defined exclusions; (3) a legitimate Terraform operator or automated CI/CD process must trigger a remote slug upload (terraform plan/apply against a remote backend, or equivalent API call) while attacker-influenced files are present in the workspace. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 3.1 base score of 5.5 (Medium) with vector AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R is broadly consistent with the described attack scenario, though the PR:N rating warrants scrutiny: placing Unicode-bypass files in a Terraform working directory realistically requires at least minimal write access to that directory, suggesting the actual privilege bar may be slightly higher than the vector implies - this is an explicit conflict between the vector and the description that defenders should verify with the vendor. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in. |
| Remediation | The primary remediation is to upgrade the go-slug Go module to a version beyond 0.18.2 that incorporates the Unicode normalization fix; teams consuming this library should update their go.mod and go.sum files and rebuild any binaries that embed go-slug, including custom Terraform tooling or automation that invokes slug operations directly. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
