CVE-2024-35183
No affected components available
wolfictl is a command line tool for working with Wolfi. A git authentication issue in versions prior to 0.16.10 allows a local user’s GitHub token to be sent to remote servers other than github.com. Most git-dependent functionality in wolfictl relies on its own git package, which contains centralized logic for implementing interactions with git repositories. Some of this functionality requires authentication in order to access private repositories. A central function GetGitAuth looks for a GitHub token in the environment variable GITHUB_TOKEN and returns it as an HTTP basic auth object to be used with the github.com/go-git/go-git/v5 library. Most callers (direct or indirect) of GetGitAuth use the token to authenticate to github.com only; however, in some cases callers were passing this authentication without checking that the remote git repository was hosted on github.com. This behavior has existed in one form or another since commit 0d06e1578300327c212dda26a5ab31d09352b9d0 - committed January 25, 2023. This impacts anyone who ran the wolfictl check update commands with a Melange configuration that included a git-checkout directive step that referenced a git repository not hosted on github.com. This also impacts anyone who ran wolfictl update <url> with a remote URL outside of github.com. Additionally, these subcommands must have run with the GITHUB_TOKEN environment variable set to a valid GitHub token. Users should upgrade to version 0.16.10 to receive a patch.
The vulnerability requires local access to the device to be exploited. It is difficult for an attacker to exploit this vulnerability and may require special conditions. An attacker needs basic access or low-level privileges. The attacker needs the user to perform some action, like clicking a link. The impact is confined to the system where the vulnerability exists. There is a high impact on the confidentiality of the information.
Exploitation attempts have been detected. Elevated vigilance and prompt remediation are advised.
The exploit probability is very low. The vulnerability is unlikely to be exploited in the next 30 days.
We did not find any exploit available. Neither in GitHub repositories nor in the Exploit-Database.
