It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2022-23653 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- b2 (PyPI): affected all versions; fixed in 3.2.1\n- b2 (PyPI): affected all versions; fixed in 3.2.1\n- b2 (PyPI): affected all versions; fixed in 3.2.1\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-23653/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-23653/index.md)","id":"CVE-2022-23653","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-23653/index.md","name":"CVE-2022-23653","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-8wr4-2wm6-w3pr","PYSEC-2022-32"],"analysis":{"component_type":"developer_tool","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_read"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"B2 CLI tool","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Local attackers can exploit a race condition to read sensitive API keys from the B2 CLI configuration file during creation.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"race_condition"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"GitHub_M","cpe":[{"product":"b2_command_line_tool","vendor":"backblaze"}],"cvss":{"score":4.7,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-367","name":"Time-of-check Time-of-use (TOCTOU) Race Condition"}],"description":"B2 Command Line Tool is the official command line tool for the backblaze cloud storage service. Linux and Mac releases of the B2 command-line tool version 3.2.0 and below contain a key disclosure vulnerability that, in certain conditions, can be exploited by local attackers through a time-of-check-time-of-use (TOCTOU) race condition. The command line tool saves API keys (and bucket name-to-id mapping) in a local database file (`$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/b2/account_info`, `~/.b2_account_info` or a user-defined path) when `b2 authorize-account` is first run. This happens regardless of whether a valid key is provided or not. When first created, the file is world readable and is (typically a few milliseconds) later altered to be private to the user. If the directory is readable by a local attacker and the user did not yet run `b2 authorize-account` then during the brief period between file creation and permission modification, a local attacker can race to open the file and maintain a handle to it. This allows the local attacker to read the contents after the file after the sensitive information has been saved to it. Users that have not yet run `b2 authorize-account` should upgrade to B2 Command-Line Tool v3.2.1 before running it. Users that have run `b2 authorize-account` are safe if at the time of the file creation no other local users had read access to the local configuration file. Users that have run `b2 authorize-account` where the designated path could be opened by another local user should upgrade to B2 Command-Line Tool v3.2.1 and remove the database and regenerate all application keys. Note that `b2 clear-account` does not remove the database file and it should not be used to ensure that all open handles to the file are invalidated. If B2 Command-Line Tool cannot be upgraded to v3.2.1 due to a dependency conflict, a binary release can be used instead. Alternatively a new version could be installed within a virtualenv, or the permissions can be changed to prevent local users from opening the database file.","ecosystems":["PyPI"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"B2 Command Line Tool TOCTOU application key disclosure","id":"CVE-2022-23653","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"PyPI","product":null,"products":[],"type":"race_condition","year":"2022"},"n_packages":3,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"Improper write access check in Requarks/wiki","id":"CVE-2022-23654"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"PyPI","fixed":["3.2.1"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"b2","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-8wr4-2wm6-w3pr"},{"ecosystem":"PyPI","fixed":["3.2.1"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"b2","purl":"pkg:pypi/b2","source":"GHSA-8wr4-2wm6-w3pr"},{"ecosystem":"PyPI","fixed":["3.2.1"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"b2","purl":"pkg:pypi/b2","source":"PYSEC-2022-32"}],"prev":{"headline":"Privilege escalation using hop-by-hop Connection header","id":"CVE-2022-23652"},"products":["B2_Command_Line_Tool"],"published":"2022-02-23","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"GitHub Advisory Database","prefix":"GHSA"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"PyPA Advisory Database","prefix":"PYSEC"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-04-23","vendors":["Backblaze"]},"summary":"Local attackers can exploit a race condition to read sensitive API keys from the B2 CLI configuration file during creation.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-23653/"}
