Description

RabbitMQ has predictable credential obfuscation seed value used in Shovel and Federation plugins

Impact

Shovel and Federation plugins perform URI obfuscation in their worker (link) state. The encryption key used to encrypt

the URI was seeded with a predictable secret.

This means that in case of certain exceptions related to Shovel and Federation plugins,

reasonably easily deobfuscatable data could appear in the node log.

Patched versions correctly use a cluster-wide secret for that purpose.

Patches

Patched versions:

  • 3.10.2
  • 3.9.18
  • 3.8.32

Workarounds

Disable Shovel and Federation plugins.

How this vulnerability can be exploited

The scope is unchanged, so the impact stays within the vulnerable component. Rated impact: confidentiality high, integrity none, availability none.

CVSS metrics in full

The score comes from this vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N

  • Attack vector: Local — a local account, shell or session on the host is needed.
  • Attack complexity: Low — the attack works reliably, with no preparation.
  • Privileges required: Low — an ordinary user account is enough.
  • User interaction: None — nobody has to be tricked into anything.
  • Scope: Unchanged — the damage stays inside the vulnerable component.
  • Confidentiality impact: High — total loss, or loss the attacker controls.
  • Integrity impact: None.
  • Availability impact: None.
