Description
Boruta is a standalone authorization server that aims to implement OAuth 2.0 and Openid Connect up to decentralized identity specifications. Prior to version 0.10.0, Boruta logged sensitive OAuth and OpenID Connect values in business event logs. Logged values could include access tokens, refresh tokens, authorization codes, agent tokens, direct-post codes, ID tokens, VP tokens, and tokens submitted to introspection or revocation endpoints. An attacker with access to Boruta logs, log aggregation systems, or the administration log viewer could recover these credentials and use them until expiration or revocation. This issue has been patched in version 0.10.0.

AI Analysis

Impact

Boruta, an OAuth 2.0 and OpenID Connect authorization server, logged highly sensitive authentication artifacts, including access tokens, refresh tokens, authorization codes, and various identity tokens, in its business event logs. This flaw meant that any attacker who could read these logs had access to usable credentials until they expired or were revoked, thereby compromising integrity and confidentiality of protected resources. The weakness is classified as CWE‑532, indicating insecure storage of credentials in logs.

Affected Systems

The vulnerability affects the malach‑it:boruta‑server product on all releases prior to version 0.10.0. Users running versions older than 0.10.0 are at risk until they upgrade.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 6.5 places this flaw in the medium severity range. EPSS data is not available, but the vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog. The attack requires an adversary with visibility into Boruta's logs, which could be gained through log aggregation systems, administrator log viewers, or similar access points. Consequently, privileged or compromised users who can access logs could exploit the exposed tokens to impersonate legitimate clients or end users, potentially leading to unauthorized data access or service disruption. The risk is heightened if log storage or transmission mechanisms lack proper access controls.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade Boruta to version 0.10.0 or later
  • Restrict all log access to privileged accounts only to prevent unauthorized log reading
  • Implement log filtering or sanitization to remove OAuth and OpenID Connect credentials from business logs
