Credential disclosure via command-line arguments
Published Jun 13, 2022 · Updated Aug 3, 2024
Information disclosure in Couchbase Server 5.x through 7.x before 7.0.4 allows remote attackers to obtain Secrets Management credentials via process arguments. The couchbase-cli utility passes the Secrets Management master password to a short-lived Erlang process as a command-line argument, exposing it through process-list inspection. Exploitation requires a cluster using Secrets Management and access to process arguments; the disclosed credential can enable administrative actions.
