The possible fixes have been provided, however, it is the responsibility of the etcd users to make sure that the etcd server WAL log files are secure. The [etcd doesn't encrypt key/value data stored on disk drives](https://github.com/etcd-io/etcd/blob/master/Documentation/op-guide/security.md#does-etcd-encrypt-data-stored-on-disk-drives).\n\n### Detail\nUser credentials (login and password) are stored in WAL entries on each user authentication. If the WAL log files are not secure, it can potentially expose sensitive information.\n\n### References\nFind out more on this vulnerability in the [security audit report](https://github.com/etcd-io/etcd/blob/master/security/SECURITY_AUDIT.pdf)\n\n### For more information\nIf you have any questions or comments about this advisory:\n* Contact the [etcd security committee](https://github.com/etcd-io/etcd/blob/master/security/security-release-process.md#product-security-committee-psc)","published":"2022-10-06T23:17:24Z","modified":"2023-03-30T14:46:31Z","cvss":null,"epss":null,"cisaKev":null,"exploitsKnown":0,"affectedPackages":[{"ecosystem":"Go","name":"go.etcd.io/etcd/client/v3","fixedVersion":"3.4.10"},{"ecosystem":"Go","name":"go.etcd.io/etcd/client/v3","fixedVersion":"3.3.23"}],"fix":{"url":"https://github.com/etcd-io/etcd/pull/11818","label":"etcd-io/etcd#11818"},"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/etcd-io/etcd/security/advisories/GHSA-528j-9r78-wffx"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/etcd-io/etcd/issues/10132"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/etcd-io/etcd/pull/11818"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/etcd-io/etcd/commit/585814082b8c8b7db272b30b365b81d27df4a4cb"},{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://github.com/etcd-io/etcd"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/etcd-io/etcd/blob/master/Documentation/op-guide/security.md#does-etcd-encrypt-data-stored-on-disk-drives"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/etcd-io/etcd/blob/master/security/SECURITY_AUDIT.pdf"}],"provenance":{"sources":["OSV.dev","FIRST.org (EPSS)"],"lastVerified":"2023-03-30T14:46:31Z"}}
