AI-suggested
This vulnerability is fixed in Dgraph version 25.3.3. Users should upgrade to version 25.3.3 or later to remediate this issue. Patch status is not explicitly confirmed in the vendor advisory content provided, but the description states the fix is included in 25.3.3. Until upgrading, restrict access to the /debug/vars endpoint and avoid passing sensitive tokens via command line flags if possible.
Description
Dgraph versions prior to 25.3.3 expose sensitive information via an unauthenticated /debug/vars endpoint on the Alpha component. This exposure includes the process command line, which often contains the admin token passed as a startup flag. An attacker can retrieve this token and use it to access admin-only endpoints by replaying it in the X-Dgraph-AuthToken header. This vulnerability is a variant of a previously fixed issue but was incompletely remediated. The vulnerability is fixed in version 25.3.3.
