    Title
    sensitive data exposure in cloud-init logs
    Summary
    When instructing cloud-init to set a random password for a new user account, versions before 21.2 would write that password to the world-readable log file /var/log/cloud-init-output.log. This could allow a local user to log in as another user.

    CVE-2018-10896 (GCVE-0-2018-10896)

    Vulnerability from nvd – Published: 2018-08-01 17:00 – Updated: 2024-08-05 07:54
    VLAI
    Summary
    The default cloud-init configuration, in cloud-init 0.6.2 and newer, included "ssh_deletekeys: 0", disabling cloud-init's deletion of ssh host keys. In some environments, this could lead to instances created by cloning a golden master or template system, sharing ssh host keys, and being able to impersonate one another or conduct man-in-the-middle attacks.

    sensitive data exposure in cloud-init logs
    Summary
    When instructing cloud-init to set a random password for a new user account, versions before 21.2 would write that password to the world-readable log file /var/log/cloud-init-output.log. This could allow a local user to log in as another user.

    CVE-2018-10896 (GCVE-0-2018-10896)

    Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2018-08-01 17:00 – Updated: 2024-08-05 07:54
    VLAI
    Summary
    The default cloud-init configuration, in cloud-init 0.6.2 and newer, included "ssh_deletekeys: 0", disabling cloud-init's deletion of ssh host keys. In some environments, this could lead to instances created by cloning a golden master or template system, sharing ssh host keys, and being able to impersonate one another or conduct man-in-the-middle attacks.
