Encryption-key disclosure via incomplete log masking
Published Apr 29, 2025 · Updated Apr 29, 2025
Sensitive data logging in Snowflake Connector for C/C++ 0.5.0 through 2.1.0 allows local users to read a stage encryption key. The logger's SecretDetector omitted queryStageMasterKey and encryptionMaterial patterns, so DEBUG output preserved the unmasked key during GET and PUT commands. Exploitation requires DEBUG logging and local log access; the key alone cannot access staged data without additional authorization.

Exploitability
Present is not the same as exploitable
Compare your product and version with the public record. A matching version still requires validation against your environment.
Is a vulnerable build present?
Compare these published version ranges with your installed build and any vendor patches.
