Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-04-15 18:31 – Updated: 2026-04-15 18:31
VLAI
Details

In Splunk MCP Server app versions below 1.0.3 , a user who holds a role with access to the Splunk _internal index or possesses the high-privilege capability mcp_tool_admin could view users session and authorization tokens in clear text.

The vulnerability would require either local access to the log files or administrative access to internal indexes, which by default only the admin role receives.

Review roles and capabilities on your instance and restrict internal index access to administrator-level roles. See Define roles on the Splunk platform with capabilities and Connecting to MCP Server and Admin settings in the Splunk documentation for more information.

GHSA-6VFR-P2HX-6V32

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-01-19 09:30 – Updated: 2026-01-21 01:03
VLAI
Summary
Apache Linkis: Password Exposure
Details

When org.apache.linkis.metadata.util.HiveUtils.decode() fails to perform Base64 decoding, it records the complete input parameter string in the log via logger.error(str + "decode failed", e). If the input parameter contains sensitive information such as Hive Metastore keys, plaintext passwords will be left in the log files when decoding fails, resulting in information leakage.

Affected Scope Component: Sensitive fields in hive-site.xml (e.g., javax.jdo.option.ConnectionPassword) or other fields encoded in Base64. Version: Apache Linkis 1.0.0 – 1.7.0

Trigger Conditions The value of the configuration item is an invalid Base64 string. Log files are readable by users other than hive-site.xml administrators.

Severity: Low The probability of Base64 decoding failure is low. The leakage is only triggered when logs at the Error level are exposed.

Remediation Apache Linkis 1.8.0 and later versions have replaced the log with desensitized content. logger.error("URL decode failed: {}", e.getMessage()); // 不再输出 str

Users are recommended to upgrade to version 1.8.0, which fixes the issue.

Hugging Face Text Embeddings Inference through 1.9.4 contains a cleartext logging vulnerability that exposes the configured api_key because the router's Args struct lacks a redact attribute for it. Attackers with access to router logs, container output, or OTLP telemetry can recover the Bearer token and call the protected embedding and rerank endpoints.

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2021-05-21 14:31 – Updated: 2021-10-05 16:35
VLAI
Summary
Helm OCI credentials leaked into Argo CD logs
Details

Impact

When Argo CD was connected to a Helm OCI repository with authentication enabled, the credentials used for accessing the remote repository were logged.

Anyone with access to the pod logs - either via access with appropriate permissions to the Kubernetes control plane or a third party log management system where the logs from Argo CD were aggregated - could have potentially obtained the credentials to the Helm OCI repository.

If you are using Helm OCI repositories with Argo CD, it is strongly recommended to upgrade Argo CD to the latest patch version and to change the credentials used to access the repositories.

Patches

A patch for this vulnerability is available with the v1.8.7 and v1.7.14 releases of Argo CD.

Workarounds

No workaround available

Mitigation
Architecture and Design Implementation

Consider seriously the sensitivity of the information written into log files. Do not write secrets into the log files.

Mitigation
Distribution

Remove debug log files before deploying the application into production.

Mitigation
Operation

Protect log files against unauthorized read/write.

Mitigation
Implementation

Adjust configurations appropriately when software is transitioned from a debug state to production.

CAPEC-215: Fuzzing for application mapping

An attacker sends random, malformed, or otherwise unexpected messages to a target application and observes the application's log or error messages returned. The attacker does not initially know how a target will respond to individual messages but by attempting a large number of message variants they may find a variant that trigger's desired behavior. In this attack, the purpose of the fuzzing is to observe the application's log and error messages, although fuzzing a target can also sometimes cause the target to enter an unstable state, causing a crash.
