CVE-2026-11746: CWE-798 in LY Corporation Central Dogma
A vulnerability has been identified in centraldogma-server versions prior to 0.84.0, where enabling ZooKeeper replication without setting replication.secret causes the server to silently fall back to a hard-coded, publicly known secret. This default credential authenticates the embedded ZooKeeper ensemble, allowing an attacker with network access to read the full replication log or join the quorum and execute arbitrary replicated commands across the cluster.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2026-11746 is a CWE-798 credential management vulnerability in LY Corporation's Central Dogma server prior to version 0.84.0. The issue arises when ZooKeeper replication is enabled but the replication.secret is not set, causing the server to fall back silently to a hard-coded secret that is publicly known. This default secret is used to authenticate the embedded ZooKeeper ensemble, which an attacker with network access can exploit to read sensitive replication logs or join the replication quorum. By joining the quorum, the attacker can execute arbitrary commands replicated across the cluster, potentially compromising the integrity and confidentiality of the system.
Potential Impact
An attacker with network access can leverage the default hard-coded secret to authenticate to the embedded ZooKeeper ensemble. This allows unauthorized reading of the full replication log and the ability to join the quorum, enabling execution of arbitrary replicated commands. The vulnerability thus compromises both confidentiality and integrity of the Central Dogma cluster replication process, posing a critical risk to affected deployments.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is available, ensure that the replication.secret configuration is explicitly set to a strong, unique value when enabling ZooKeeper replication to avoid fallback to the hard-coded secret.
