Improper Preservation of Permissions in github.com/cloudflare/cfrpki/cmd/octorpki

High
dhaynespls published GHSA-3pqh-p72c-fj85 Nov 18, 2021

Package

gomod github.com/cloudflare/cfrpki/cmd/octorpki (Go)

Affected versions

< v1.4.0

Patched versions

v1.4.2

Description

Impact

When copying files with rsync, octorpki uses the "-a" flag 0, which forces rsync to copy binaries with the suid bit set as root. Since the provided service definition defaults to root (https://github.com/cloudflare/cfrpki/blob/master/package/octorpki.service) this could allow for a vector, when combined with another vulnerability that causes octorpki to process a malicious TAL file, for a local privilege escalation.
