{"id":"CVE-2023-30841","summary":"Ironic and ironic-inspector deployed within Baremetal Operator may expose as ConfigMaps","details":"Baremetal Operator (BMO) is a bare metal host provisioning integration for Kubernetes. Prior to version 0.3.0, ironic and ironic-inspector deployed within Baremetal Operator using the included `deploy.sh` store their `.htpasswd` files as ConfigMaps instead of Secrets. This causes the plain-text username and hashed password to be readable by anyone having a cluster-wide read-access to the management cluster, or access to the management cluster's Etcd storage. This issue is patched in baremetal-operator PR#1241, and is included in BMO release 0.3.0 onwards. As a workaround, users may modify the kustomizations and redeploy the BMO, or recreate the required ConfigMaps as Secrets per instructions in baremetal-operator PR#1241.","aliases":["GHSA-9wh7-397j-722m"],"modified":"2026-08-12T03:51:36.823667415Z","published":"2023-04-26T18:24:04.479Z","database_specific":{"cwe_ids":["CWE-200"],"osv_generated_from":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2023/30xxx/CVE-2023-30841.json","cna_assigner":"GitHub_M"},"references":[{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2023/30xxx/CVE-2023-30841.json"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/metal3-io/baremetal-operator/security/advisories/GHSA-9wh7-397j-722m"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2023-30841"},{"type":"FIX","url":"https://github.com/metal3-io/baremetal-operator/pull/1241"}],"affected":[{"ranges":[{"type":"GIT","repo":"https://github.com/metal3-io/baremetal-operator","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"945aa3ee6d9d9b0caa48b5f7bb81dccdac445816"}],"database_specific":{"extracted_events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"0.3.0"}],"source":["AFFECTED_FIELD","CPE_RANGE"],"cpe":"cpe:2.3:a:linuxfoundation:baremetal_operator:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*"}}],"versions":["v0.3.0-rc.0","pkg/hardwareutils/v0.3.0-rc.0","apis/v0.3.0-rc.0","v0.2.0","pkg/hardwareutils/v0.2.0","apis/v0.2.0","v0.1.2","pkg/hardwareutils/v0.1.2","apis/v0.1.2","v0.1.1","pkg/hardwareutils/v0.1.1","apis/v0.1.1","pkg/hardwareutils/v0.1.0","apis/v0.1.0","v0.1.0","capm3-v1.1.2","capm3-v1.1.1","capm3-v1.1.0","capm3-v0.5.4","capm3-v0.5.3","capm3-v0.5.2","capm3-v0.5.5","capm3-v0.5.1","capm3-v0.5.0","capm3-v0.4.3","capm3-v0.4.1","capm3-v0.4.0","capm3-v0.3.2","capm3-v0.3.0","before-rename"],"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/cve-osv-conversion/osv-output/CVE-2023-30841.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:C/C:N/I:H/A:N"}]}
