How urgent is this, really
Where this sits among everything scored
Description
The agent_memory module accepts a caller-supplied tenant parameter in create_client(tenant=...). Prior to version 0.50.0, the tenant parameter was not validated before being used to construct filesystem paths for secret resolution. A value containing path traversal sequences (for example, attacker-corp/../victim-corp) could cause the resolved path to escape the intended directory and access another tenant's secrets under:Plain Text/etc/secrets/appfnd/hana-agent-memory/<tenant>/Successful exploitation could allow unauthorized access to another tenant's mounted credentials, including OAuth client IDs and client secrets. This vulnerability could enable cross-tenant access to sensitive credentials.
Detection & mitigation playbook
VulnerabilityDetect
Identify every host running the affected component and compare the installed build against the fixed version below — for source-built or distro-packaged software the version string, not a lockfile, is the source of truth (`dpkg -l`, `rpm -q`, or the binary's own `--version`).
Fix
Upgrade the affected component to the fixed release for GHSA-28c8-457r-4cf6, or apply your distribution's backported patch — distro builds are often patched at an older version number, so check your vendor's advisory rather than the upstream version alone.
Workarounds
Resolve every user-supplied path to its canonical form and reject anything that escapes the intended directory, and run the component under an account that has no read or write access outside the directory it legitimately serves.
