Impact We've identified a vulnerability in the Pomerium databroker service API that may grant unintended access under specific conditions. This affects only certain Pomerium Zero and Pomerium Enterprise deployments. Who is affected? A Pomerium deployment is susceptible to this issue if all of the following conditions are met: – You have issued a service account access token using Pomerium Zero or Pomerium Enterprise. – The access token has an explicit expiration date in the future. – The core Pomerium databroker gRPC API is not otherwise secured by network access controls. If your deployment does not meet all of these conditions, you are not affected by this vulnerability. Details The Pomerium databroker service is responsible for managing all persistent Pomerium application state. Requests to the databroker service API are authorized by the presence of a JSON Web Token (JWT) signed by a key known by all Pomerium services in the same deployment. However, incomplete validation of this JWT meant that some service account access tokens would incorrectly be treated as valid for the purpose of databroker API authorization. Improper access to the databroker API could allow exfiltration of user info, spoofing of user sessions, or tampering with Pomerium routes, policies, and other settings. Discovery This issue was discovered during internal review. At this time we have no evidence to suggest that this vulnerability has been exploited in the wild. Patches We have released Pomerium…Read More
