MinIO < RELEASE.2023-03-20T20-16-18Z Multiple Vulnerabilities

high Nessus Plugin ID 181873

Synopsis

The MinIO instance installed on the remote host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The version of MinIO installed on the remote host is prior to RELEASE.2023-03-20T20-16-18Z. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

- When deployed in a cluster/in distributed mode MinIO returns all environment variables, including 'MINIO_SECRET_KEY' and 'MINIO_ROOT_PASSWORD', resulting in information disclosure. (CVE-2023-28432)

- An attacker can use crafted requests to bypass metadata bucket name checking and put an object into any bucket while processing PostPolicyBucket. To carry out this attack, the attacker requires credentials with arn:aws:s3:::* permission, as well as enabled Console API access. (CVE-2023-28434)

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

Solution

Upgrade to MinIO version RELEASE.2023-03-20T20-16-18Z or later, or apply the workaround mentioned in the vendor advisory.
