Description

Description

When using the NoPrivateNetworkHttpClient, some internal information is still leaking during host resolution, which leads to possible IP/port enumeration.

Resolution

The NoPrivateNetworkHttpClient now filters blocked IPs earlier to prevent such leaks.

The fisrt patch for this issue is available here for branch 5.4.

The second one is available here for branch 5.4 also.

Credits

We would like to thank Linus Karlsson and Chris Smith for reporting the issue and Nicolas Grekas for providing the fix.

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-200: Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor

The product exposes sensitive information to an actor that is not explicitly authorized to have access to that information.

How to prevent it
  • Architecture and Design: Compartmentalize the system to have "safe" areas where trust boundaries can be unambiguously drawn. Do not allow sensitive data to go outside of the trust boundary and always be careful when interfacing with a compartment outside of the safe area. Ensure that appropriate compartmentalization is built into the system design, and the compartmentalization allows for and reinforces privilege separation functionality. Architects and designers should rely on the principle of least privilege to decide the appropriate time to use privileges and the time to drop privileges.
