An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of GHSA-h8g9-6gvh-5mrc in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- go.etcd.io/etcd/v3 (Go): affected all versions; fixed in 3.3.23\n- go.etcd.io/etcd/v3 (Go): affected all versions; fixed in 3.3.23\n- go.etcd.io/etcd/v3 (Go): affected from 3.4.0; fixed in 3.4.10\n- go.etcd.io/etcd/v3 (Go): affected from 3.4.0; fixed in 3.4.10\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/GHSA-h8g9-6gvh-5mrc/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/GHSA-h8g9-6gvh-5mrc/index.md)","id":"GHSA-h8g9-6gvh-5mrc","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/GHSA-h8g9-6gvh-5mrc/index.md","name":"GHSA-h8g9-6gvh-5mrc","record":{"aliases":[],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"configuration_change","impacts":["security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"etcd distributed key-value store","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An attacker can bypass authentication in etcd gateway if endpoint settings change after initial DNS-based validation, requiring specific gateway configuration.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"auth_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":null,"cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":null,"severity":null,"source":null,"vector":null,"version":null},"cwes":[],"description":"### Vulnerability type\nAuthentication\n\n### Workarounds\nRefer to the [gateway documentation](https://github.com/etcd-io/etcd/blob/master/Documentation/op-guide/gateway.md). The vulnerability was spotted due to unclear documentation of how the gateway handles endpoints validation. \n\n### Detail\nThe gateway only authenticates endpoints detected from DNS SRV records, and it only authenticates the detected endpoints once. Therefore, if an endpoint changes its authentication settings, the gateway will continue to assume the endpoint is still authenticated. The auditors has noted that appropriate documentation of this validation functionality plus deprecation of this misleading functionality is an acceptable path forward.\n\n### References\nFind out more on this vulnerability in the [security audit report](https://github.com/etcd-io/etcd/blob/master/security/SECURITY_AUDIT.pdf)\n\n### For more information\nIf you have any questions or comments about this advisory:\n* Contact the [etcd security committee](https://github.com/etcd-io/etcd/blob/master/security/security-release-process.md#product-security-committee-psc)","ecosystems":["Go"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":null,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":null,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":null,"nuclei":null,"refs":[],"tier":null},"has_fix":true,"headline":"etcd vulnerable to TOCTOU of gateway endpoint authentication","id":"GHSA-h8g9-6gvh-5mrc","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"advisory","links":{"ecosystem":"Go","product":null,"products":[],"type":"auth_bypass","year":"2022"},"n_packages":4,"n_references":null,"packages":[{"ecosystem":"Go","fixed":["3.3.23"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"go.etcd.io/etcd/v3","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-h8g9-6gvh-5mrc"},{"ecosystem":"Go","fixed":["3.3.23"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"go.etcd.io/etcd/v3","purl":"pkg:golang/go.etcd.io/etcd/v3","source":"GHSA-h8g9-6gvh-5mrc"},{"ecosystem":"Go","fixed":["3.4.10"],"introduced":["3.4.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"go.etcd.io/etcd/v3","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-h8g9-6gvh-5mrc"},{"ecosystem":"Go","fixed":["3.4.10"],"introduced":["3.4.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"go.etcd.io/etcd/v3","purl":"pkg:golang/go.etcd.io/etcd/v3","source":"GHSA-h8g9-6gvh-5mrc"}],"products":null,"published":"2022-10-06","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"GitHub Advisory Database","prefix":"GHSA"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":null,"updated":null,"vendors":null},"summary":"An attacker can bypass authentication in etcd gateway if endpoint settings change after initial DNS-based validation, requiring specific gateway configuration.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/GHSA-h8g9-6gvh-5mrc/"}
