AI-suggested

Users should upgrade to Amazon Kinesis Producer Library version 1.0.8 or later, which fixes this vulnerability. Additionally, it is recommended to rotate any long-term IAM user keys, revoke active role sessions as necessary, and restrict or redact sensitive information in log data generated by affected versions. These steps will help prevent credential exposure and limit potential damage.

Description

Insertion of sensitive information into a log file in Amazon Kinesis Producer Library for Java before 1.0.8, when the library's logger is configured at DEBUG log level, might allow local users to obtain the AWS credentials that the library resolved for the application. Separately, affected versions of the library pass these credentials to the native child process as command-line arguments, where a local user can read them from the process argument list. To remediate this issue, users should upgrade to version 1.0.8 or later, rotate any long-term IAM user keys, revoke active role sessions where needed, and restrict or redact log data written by an affected version. 0.x users should migrate to software.amazon.kinesis:amazon-kinesis-producer 1.0.8 or later.
