Ecosyste.ms: Advisories

An open API service providing security vulnerability metadata for many open source software ecosystems.

Security Advisories: GSA_kwCzR0hTQS1wcWo3LWp4MjQtd2o3d84AAzSa

VTAdmin users that can create shards can deny access to other functions

Impact

Users can either intentionally or inadvertently create a shard containing / characters from VTAdmin such that from that point on, anyone who tries to create a new shard from VTAdmin will receive an error.
Attempting to view the keyspace(s) will also no longer work.
Creating a shard using vtctldclient does not have the same problem because the CLI validates the input correctly.

Patches

v16.0.2, corresponding to 0.16.2 on pkg.go.dev

Workarounds

% etcdctl --endpoints "http://${ETCD_SERVER}" del /vitess/global/keyspaces/commerce/shards/a/b/Shard
