VMware Harbor 1.8.x < 1.8.4 (VMSA-2019-0016)

high Nessus Plugin ID 130153

Synopsis

A cloud native registry installed on the remote host is affected by a broken access control vulnerability.

Description

The version of VMware Harbor installed on the remote host is 1.8.x prior to 1.8.4. It is, therefore, affected by a broken access control vulnerability due to a failure to enforce proper project permissions and project scope on the API request to create a new robot account. This vulnerability allows project administrators to use the Harbor API to create a robot account with unauthorized push and/or pull access permissions to a project they don't have access to or control over.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Update to VMware Harbor version 1.8.4 or later.
