GHSA-MW39-9QC2-F7MG

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2025-10-24 15:27 – Updated: 2025-10-31 20:21

Summary

Rancher exposes sensitive information through audit logs

Details

Impact

Note: The exploitation of this issue requires that the malicious user have access to Rancher’s audit log storage.

Secret Annotation Leakage: When creating Kubernetes Secrets using the stringData field, the cleartext value is embedded in the kubectl.kubernetes.io/last-applied-configuration annotation. This annotation is included in Rancher audit logs within both the request and response bodies, exposing secret material that should be redacted.
Cluster Registration Token Leakage: During the import or creation of downstream clusters (Custom, Imported, or Harvester), Rancher audit logs record full cluster registration manifests and tokens, including: a. Non-expiring import URLs such as /v3/import/<token>_c-m-xxxx.yaml. b. Full kubectl apply and curl commands containing registration tokens and CA checksums. c. Token values associated with cluster registration resources (clusterRegistrationToken). d. These tokens are valid until explicitly revoked and can be used to re-register nodes, granting unauthorized cluster access.

An attacker or internal user who gains access to these logs could: - Recover plaintext secret values from annotations. - Use cluster registration tokens or import URLs to re-enroll agents or compromise downstream clusters. - Access clusters that rely on these tokens for authentication, enabling lateral movement.

Please consult the associated MITRE ATT&CK - Technique - Log Enumeration for further information about this category of attack.

Patches

This vulnerability is addressed by applying redaction to sensitive information that was leaking.

Patched versions of Rancher include release v2.12.3.

Workarounds

If the deployment can't be upgraded to a fixed version, users are encouraged to create AuditPolicies to redact and filter some of those requests as described in our documentation.

The following AuditPolicy can be applied to redact the secrets:

apiVersion: auditlog.cattle.io/v1
kind: AuditPolicy
metadata:
  name: redactions
spec:
  enabled: true
  additionalRedactions:
    - headers:
      - "Referer"
    - paths:
      - "$..metadata.annotations['kubectl.kubernetes.io/last-applied-configuration']"

Also consider granting access to Rancher's logs only for trusted users.

References

If you have any questions or comments about this advisory: - Reach out to the SUSE Rancher Security team for security related inquiries. - Open an issue in the Rancher repository. - Verify with our support matrix and product support lifecycle.
