AI-suggested
European organizations using CyberArk Conjur Secrets Manager, Self-Hosted or Conjur OSS should immediately verify their product versions and upgrade to Conjur OSS 1.22.1 or Secrets Manager versions 13.5.1/13.6.1 or later. Network administrators must audit and correct any misconfigurations in network devices that route traffic between Secrets Manager and AWS, ensuring that authentication requests cannot be intercepted or rerouted. Implement strict network segmentation and use encrypted, authenticated channels (e.g., TLS with mutual authentication) for all communication between Secrets Manager and cloud services. Employ network monitoring and anomaly detection to identify unusual routing or traffic redirection attempts. Regularly review and harden firewall and routing policies to prevent unauthorized traffic manipulation. Additionally, conduct penetration testing focused on network routing and authentication flows to detect potential weaknesses. Maintain an incident response plan that includes rapid patch deployment and investigation procedures for suspicious authentication activity.
Description
An attacker of Secrets Manager, Self-Hosted installations that route traffic from Secrets Manager to AWS through a misconfigured network device can reroute authentication requests to a malicious server under the attacker’s control. CyberArk believes there to be very few installations where this issue can be actively exploited, though Secrets Manager, Self-Hosted (formerly Conjur Enterprise) prior to versions 13.5.1 and 13.6.1 and Conjur OSS prior to version 1.22.1 may be affected. Conjur OSS version 1.22.1 and Secrets Manager, Self-Hosted versions 13.5.1 and 13.6.1 fix the issue.
