Advisory

ID: NFLX-2021-002
Title: Local information disclosure in Priam
Release Date: 2021-03-23
Severity: Low
Credit: Security Researcher Jonathan Leitschuh

Overview:

Security researcher Jonathan Leitschuh reported that Netflix Priam (a Netflix OSS project available here: https://github.com/Netflix/Priam) writes to a local temporary file with world-readable permissions.

Impact:

An attacker with read access to the local filesystem can read anything written there by the Priam process.

Description:

Priam uses File.createTempFile, which gives the permissions on that file -rw-r--r--.

Further details are available from the original reporter.

Workarounds and Fixes

Avoid running Hollow in configurations that share a filesystem with less-trusted processes. May be fixed in a future release.
