DescriptionCVE.org

Invocation of process using visible sensitive information vulnerability in TÜBİTAK BİLGEM Software Technologies Research Institute eta-otp-lock allows System Footprinting.

This issue affects eta-otp-lock: before 1.0.4.

AnalysisAI

eta-otp-lock before version 1.0.4 exposes sensitive information - likely OTP codes or credentials - as visible process arguments during invocation, enabling local system footprinting by other users. The vulnerability maps to CWE-214, where secrets passed via command-line arguments or process environment can be read by any local user through standard OS interfaces such as /proc or ps. …

Attack ChainAIDerived

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata

Access
Gain low-privilege local shell access
Delivery
Monitor system process list via ps or /proc
Exploit
Wait for legitimate user OTP invocation
Execution
Capture OTP from visible process arguments
Persist
Replay intercepted OTP before expiry
Impact
Bypass authentication control

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires that the attacker already holds a local account on the target system with at least standard (non-root) user privileges (CVSS PR:L). … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The NVD CVSS 3.1 score of 5.0 (Medium) reflects an exclusively local attack surface (AV:L), low-privilege requirement (PR:L), and mandatory user interaction (UI:R), all of which substantially constrain exploitability. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario A local user on a shared system running eta-otp-lock polls 'ps aux' or reads /proc/<pid>/cmdline at the moment a legitimate user authenticates via the OTP tool, capturing the OTP value passed as a visible process argument. The attacker then immediately reuses the intercepted OTP before it expires to bypass authentication. …
Remediation Upgrade to eta-otp-lock version 1.0.4 or later, which resolves the visible sensitive information exposure per the TR-CERT advisory at https://siberguvenlik.gov.tr/guvenlik-bildirimleri/detay/tr-26-0753. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
