Insertion of Sensitive Information into Log File

CVE-2025-1979

Medium
5.7/10

Summary

Versions of the package ray 2.7.0rc0 through 2.42.1 are vulnerable to the Insertion of Sensitive Information into the Log File where the redis password is being logged in the standard logging. If the redis password is passed as an argument, it will be logged and could potentially leak the password. This is only exploitable if: 1) Logging is enabled; 2) Redis is using password authentication; 3) Those logs are accessible to an attacker, who can reach that redis instance. Note: It is recommended that anyone who is running in this configuration should update to the latest version of ray, then rotate their redis password.

CWE-532 - Insertion of Sensitive Information into Log File

It's quite common for applications to save logs. For example, whenever a user requests a resource from a particular website, the web server writes information about the request to a log file. These files are helpful for identifying abnormal system activity, bugs, and evaluating the security controls of the application. Security of log files is critical for the overall security of the application and its confidential resources. An application that lacks appropriate logging levels can expose sensitive user data and system information stored on the log files to malicious users. This info can be exploited to compromise your system.
