Detailsinfo

A vulnerability classified as problematic was found in Dependency-Track up to 4.5.x. This vulnerability affects an unknown code block of the component API Request Handler. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a cleartext storage vulnerability. The CWE definition for the vulnerability is CWE-312. The product stores sensitive information in cleartext within a resource that might be accessible to another control sphere. As an impact it is known to affect confidentiality. CVE summarizes:

Dependency-Track is a Component Analysis platform that allows organizations to identify and reduce risk in the software supply chain. Prior to version 4.6.0, performing an API request using a valid API key with insufficient permissions causes the API key to be written to Dependency-Track's audit log in clear text. Actors with access to the audit log can exploit this flaw to gain access to valid API keys. The issue has been fixed in Dependency-Track 4.6.0. Instead of logging the entire API key, only the last 4 characters of the key will be logged. It is strongly recommended to check historic logs for occurrences of this behavior, and re-generating API keys in case of leakage.

The weakness was released 10/26/2022 as GHSA-gh7v-4hxp-gqp4. The advisory is available at github.com. This vulnerability was named CVE-2022-39351 since 09/02/2022. The technical details are unknown and an exploit is not available. This vulnerability is assigned to T1555 by the MITRE ATT&CK project.

Upgrading to version 4.6.0 eliminates this vulnerability. The upgrade is hosted for download at docs.dependencytrack.org.
