Description

Summary

Use of Cache Containing Sensitive Information vulnerability in ash-project ash_authentication_oauth2_server allows a shared HTTP cache to serve one tenant's OAuth discovery metadata to another tenant's clients.

The RFC 8414 and RFC 9728 metadata endpoints in AshAuthentication.Phoenix.Oauth2Server.ProtocolRouter return tenant-specific values (issuer, authorization_endpoint, token_endpoint, jwks_uri) when a tenant is set, but sent them with Cache-Control: public, max-age=3600 and no Vary. When the tenant is derived from something other than the URL (a header or the Host) and a shared cache sits in front, the cache key is the URL alone, so a stored response for one tenant is served to another for up to an hour. Affected clients may then send authorization codes and secrets to the wrong tenant's token endpoint and validate tokens against the wrong keys.

This issue affects ash_authentication_oauth2_server: from 0.1.3 before 0.3.1.

Configurations

Reachable only in a multi-tenant deployment where the tenant is derived from outside the request URL (a header or the Host) and a shared HTTP cache (CDN, reverse proxy) sits in front of the metadata endpoints.

How to fix

Move to the fixed version or later with your package manager, update the lockfile, and run your tests. If the package only arrives through another dependency, upgrade that dependency first. If none of its releases pulls a fixed version yet, force the version with your package manager's override.

Weakness

CWE-524: Use of Cache Containing Sensitive Information

The code uses a cache that contains sensitive information, but the cache can be read by an actor outside of the intended control sphere.

How to prevent it
  • Architecture and Design: Protect information stored in cache.
  • Architecture and Design: Do not store unnecessarily sensitive information in the cache.
  • Architecture and Design: Consider using encryption in the cache.
