CVE-2019-10225Network attack vector

GlusterFS file access via exposed REST key

Published Mar 19, 2021 · Updated Aug 4, 2024

Credential exposure in Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform 4.2 allows remote authenticated users to obtain a GlusterFS REST key. The basic-user RBAC role permits users who can edit a GlusterFS StorageClass to retrieve its restuserkey value instead of protecting it as a secret. Basic-user permissions and an affected GlusterFS StorageClass are required; the exposed key authenticates to the REST service for reading or modifying files.
