Technical Analysis
Progress MarkLogic Server versions 12.x prior to 12.1.0 and 11.x prior to 11.3.7 have a vulnerability where connections to Amazon S3 may use unencrypted (cleartext) transport by default. This can allow attackers positioned on the network path to intercept data or credentials transmitted over these connections. The vulnerability is identified as CWE-319 (Cleartext Transmission of Sensitive Information).
Potential Impact
An attacker with network access could intercept sensitive data or credentials transmitted in cleartext to Amazon S3, compromising confidentiality. There is no indication of impact on data integrity or system availability.
Mitigation Recommendations
A fix is available in Progress MarkLogic Server versions 12.1.0 and 11.3.7. Users should upgrade to these or later versions to ensure encrypted transport is used for Amazon S3 connections.
