DescriptionCVE.org

Cleartext Storage of Sensitive Information vulnerability in Apache CloudStack with AsyncJob storage in the database.

This issue affects Apache CloudStack: from 4.0.0 through 4.20.3.0 and from 4.21.0.0 through 4.22.1.0.

Users are recommended to upgrade to version 4.20.3.1 or 4.22.1.1 or later, which fixes the issue.

AnalysisAI

Cleartext storage of sensitive information in Apache CloudStack's AsyncJob database records exposes credentials and operation-sensitive data to any party with read access to the underlying database. All CloudStack deployments from version 4.0.0 through 4.22.1.0 are affected across both the 4.x stable and 4.21/4.22 release lines. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires read access to the Apache CloudStack backend database, specifically the table(s) used to store AsyncJob state and results. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The NVD CVSS vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N) implies unauthenticated network exploitation, but this is misleading for a storage vulnerability of this class. … 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 Upgrade to Apache CloudStack 4.20.3.1 (LTS) or 4.22.1.1 (current) as directed by the vendor advisory at https://lists.apache.org/thread/g6cwddtjrwbh1d56wjz4cfp3fzfm4kbc. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours, audit and restrict database access controls to AsyncJob and related tables, ensuring only essential service accounts maintain read/write permissions; document current access levels for forensic review. …
