Details
A vulnerability has been found in Baremetal Operator up to 0.2.x and classified as problematic. This vulnerability affects an unknown part of the file deploy.sh. 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:
Baremetal Operator (BMO) is a bare metal host provisioning integration for Kubernetes. Prior to version 0.3.0, ironic and ironic-inspector deployed within Baremetal Operator using the included `deploy.sh` store their `.htpasswd` files as ConfigMaps instead of Secrets. This causes the plain-text username and hashed password to be readable by anyone having a cluster-wide read-access to the management cluster, or access to the management cluster's Etcd storage. This issue is patched in baremetal-operator PR#1241, and is included in BMO release 0.3.0 onwards. As a workaround, users may modify the kustomizations and redeploy the BMO, or recreate the required ConfigMaps as Secrets per instructions in baremetal-operator PR#1241.
