CVE-2022-0355

Description

A flaw was found in the simple-get library when fetching a remote URL with a cookie when it gets to the Location response header. This flaw allows an attacker to expose sensitive information from an unauthorized actor as the cookie is leaked.

Statement

In Red Hat Virtualization, simple-get is a dependency of isomorphic-git, which is a development time dependency and is not delivered with the product. Therefore impact has been rated Low and the vulnerability will not be addressed immediately.

Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) Score Details

Info alert:Important note

CVSS scores for open source components depend on vendor-specific factors (e.g. version or build chain). Therefore, Red Hat's score and impact rating can be different from NVD and other vendors. Red Hat remains the authoritative CVE Naming Authority (CNA) source for its products and services (see Red Hat classifications).

The following CVSS metrics and score provided are preliminary and subject to review.

Understanding the Weakness (CWE)

Confidentiality

Technical Impact: Read Files or Directories; Read Application Data

Sensitive data may be exposed to an unauthorized actor in another control sphere. This may have a wide range of secondary consequences that will depend on what data is exposed. One possibility is the exposure of system data - such as file locations, software versions, or device data - that allow an attacker to craft a specific, more effective attack. Alternately, insufficient redaction of Private Personal Information (PPI), Personally Identifiable Information (PII), or other types of information might not harm the secure operation of the product itself, but could be violations of expectations by the product's users.
