CVE-2024-1141

Description

A vulnerability was found in python-glance-store. The issue occurs when the package logs the access_key for the glance-store when the DEBUG log level is enabled.

Statement

Red Hat Product Security rates this as a Moderate impact since the DEBUG log levels are normally not enabled in production environments. Also, an attacker would need access to both to change the log level and to read the log levels, which would imply the system is already compromised.

Mitigation

Avoid leaving the DEBUG log level enabled in critical environments.

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).

Understanding the Weakness (CWE)

Availability

Technical Impact: DoS: Resource Consumption (CPU); DoS: Resource Consumption (Other)

Log files can become so large that they consume excessive resources, such as disk and CPU, which can hinder the performance of the system.

Non-Repudiation

Technical Impact: Hide Activities

Logging too much information can make the log files of less use to forensics analysts and developers when trying to diagnose a problem or recover from an attack.

Non-Repudiation

Technical Impact: Hide Activities

If system administrators are unable to effectively process log files, attempted attacks may go undetected, possibly leading to eventual system compromise.
