AI-suggested

To mitigate CVE-2024-47910, organizations should promptly upgrade SonarQube to version 9.9.5 LTA or 10.5 and later, where the vulnerability is patched. Until upgrades are applied, restrict the number of users with Administrator privileges to minimize the risk of exploitation. Implement strict access controls and audit logging on SonarQube administrative actions, especially changes to GitHub integration configurations. Regularly review and rotate GitHub integration tokens to limit the window of exposure if tokens are compromised. Employ network segmentation and monitoring to detect unusual outbound traffic that could indicate token exfiltration attempts. Additionally, enforce multi-factor authentication (MFA) for all SonarQube administrators to reduce the risk of credential compromise. Consider using ephemeral or short-lived tokens for GitHub integrations where possible, reducing the impact of token leakage. Finally, educate administrators on the risks of modifying integration settings and encourage adherence to the principle of least privilege.

Description

An issue was discovered in SonarSource SonarQube before 9.9.5 LTA and 10.x before 10.5. A SonarQube user with the Administrator role can modify an existing configuration of a GitHub integration to exfiltrate a pre-signed JWT.
