Description

Cloud Foundry Log Cache, versions prior to 1.1.1, logs its UAA client secret on startup as part of its envstruct report. A remote attacker who has gained access to the Log Cache VM can read this secret, gaining all privileges held by the Log Cache UAA client. In the worst case, if this client is an admin, the attacker would gain complete control over the Foundation.

Affected products

• Cloud Foundry log-cache-release: before 1.1.1 — fixed in 1.1.1

How to fix

Upgrade to a fixed version: Cloud Foundry log-cache-release 1.1.1. Check the vendor advisory for mitigations.
