Lifecycle Timeline
4Description
RustFS is a distributed object storage system built in Rust. In versions 1.0.0-alpha.13 through 1.0.0-alpha.78, a flawed `deny_only` short-circuit in RustFS IAM allows a restricted service account or STS credential to self-issue an unrestricted service account, inheriting the parent’s full privileges. This enables privilege escalation and bypass of session/inline policy restrictions. Version 1.0.0-alpha.79 fixes the issue.
Analysis
RustFS (alpha.13 to alpha.78) has a privilege escalation where restricted service accounts can self-issue unrestricted credentials by exploiting a flawed deny_only check in the IAM system. PoC available, patch available.
