Technical ContextAI · show details
This vulnerability (CWE-532: Insertion of Sensitive Information into Log File) affects Rustfs. RustFS is a distributed object storage system built in Rust. From versions alpha.13 to alpha.81, RustFS logs sensitive credential material (access key, secret key, session token) to application logs at INFO level. This results in credentials being recorded in plaintext in log output, which may be accessible to internal or external log consumers and could lead to compromise of sensitive credentials. This issue has been patched in version alpha.82.

2DescriptionGitHub Advisory
RustFS is a distributed object storage system built in Rust. From versions alpha.13 to alpha.81, RustFS logs sensitive credential material (access key, secret key, session token) to application logs at INFO level. This results in credentials being recorded in plaintext in log output, which may be accessible to internal or external log consumers and could lead to compromise of sensitive credentials. This issue has been patched in version alpha.82.
Executive ViewAI
Rustfs versions up to 1.0.0 are logging sensitive information to unencrypted log files, creating a data exposure risk if logs are accessed by unauthorized parties or stored insecurely. This affects any systems using vulnerable Rustfs versions and could lead to credential compromise, compliance violations, and potential data breaches depending on what sensitive data is being logged.
Implement mandatory log file encryption at rest; restrict log file access via file permissions (readable only by service account and administrators); forward logs to encrypted centralized SIEM/logging system; disable debug/verbose logging modes if available; implement log file integrity monitoring; conduct forensic review of existing logs for exposed sensitive data; implement secrets management to minimize sensitive data in logs; air-gap or segment systems with Rustfs from untrusted network access.
