Description
Katanemo Plano through 0.4.37 contains a missing authentication vulnerability that allows unauthenticated network attackers to access the Envoy admin interface, which is bound to all host interfaces on port 9901. Attackers can request the /config_dump endpoint to read configured LLM provider API keys in plaintext from the WASM filter configuration.

AI Analysis

Impact

Katanemo Plano versions up to 0.4.37 expose the Envoy admin interface without authentication, allowing unauthenticated network attackers to hit the /config_dump endpoint. The response includes the full WASM filter configuration, revealing LLM provider API keys in plain text. This constitutes a confidentiality breach and could facilitate further compromise if those keys are exploited.

Affected Systems

The vulnerability affects Katanemo’s Plano software through version 0.4.37 (and earlier releases). Any instance running a vulnerable version and exposing the Envoy admin port (9901) is at risk.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 8.7 indicates high severity. The EPSS score is not available, but the flaw is exploitable by any attacker who can reach port 9901, as the admin interface is bound to all host interfaces. The vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog, but the exposed credentials present a clear opportunity for attackers to retrieve sensitive API keys. The attack vector is straightforward: a remote attacker can send a request over the network to the exposed admin endpoint without authentication requirements.

Remediation

No solution or workaround provided in the CVE record.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Update to Katanemo Plano 0.4.38 or later, where authentication is enforced on the Envoy admin interface.
  • If an update is not yet possible, isolate the Envoy admin port (9901) behind a firewall or VPN so that only trusted internal hosts can access it.
  • If the interface must remain exposed, configure Envoy to require TLS and authentication before allowing /config_dump or other administrative endpoints.
