Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-08-19 15:32 – Updated: 2026-08-19 15:32
VLAI
Details

Renovate versions >=19.180.0 and <23.25.1, when used with Azure DevOps, may expose the bot's authorization token in server or pipeline logs because the git http.extraheader=AUTHORIZATION parameter is logged without redaction. Anyone with access to saved logs could obtain the bot credentials. Fixed in 23.25.1; Azure DevOps users should revoke and regenerate credentials if logs may have been exposed.

Summary
Apache Kafka exposes sensitive information in its DEBUG logs
Details

Information exposure vulnerability has been identified in Apache Kafka.

The NetworkClient component will output entire requests and responses information in the DEBUG log level in the logs. By default, the log level is set to INFO level. If the DEBUG level is enabled, the sensitive information will be exposed via the requests and responses output log. The entire lists of impacted requests and responses are:

  • AlterConfigsRequest

  • AlterUserScramCredentialsRequest

  • ExpireDelegationTokenRequest

  • IncrementalAlterConfigsRequest

  • RenewDelegationTokenRequest

  • SaslAuthenticateRequest

  • createDelegationTokenResponse

  • describeDelegationTokenResponse

  • SaslAuthenticateResponse

This issue affects Apache Kafka: from any version supported the listed API above through v3.9.1, v4.0.0. Apache advises Kafka users to upgrade to v3.9.2, v4.0.1, or later to avoid this vulnerability.

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.
