DescriptionNVD

sealed-env is a cross-stack, zero-trust secret management library for Node.js and Java/Spring Boot. In sealed-env enterprise mode, versions 0.1.0-alpha.1 through 0.1.0-alpha.3 embedded the operator's literal TOTP secret in the JWS payload of every minted unseal token. JWS payload is base64-encoded JSON, NOT encrypted. Any party who could observe a minted token (CI build logs, container env dumps, kubectl describe pod, Sentry/Rollbar stack traces, log aggregators) could decode the payload and extract the TOTP secret in plaintext. This vulnerability is fixed in 0.1.0-alpha.4.

AnalysisAI

Plaintext TOTP secret exposure in sealed-env enterprise mode allows remote unauthenticated attackers to extract operator authentication credentials from base64-decoded JWS tokens. Versions 0.1.0-alpha.1 through 0.1.0-alpha.3 embed literal TOTP secrets in every minted unseal token's JWS payload without encryption, enabling credential harvesting from CI logs, container environments, monitoring tools, and log aggregators. …

RemediationAI

Within 24 hours: Identify all sealed-env deployments and audit version numbers to determine exposure scope; immediately isolate or quarantine affected systems. Within 7 days: Upgrade to sealed-env version 0.1.0-alpha.4 or later; rotate all TOTP operator credentials and invalidate previously-issued unseal tokens. …
