CVE-2021-41266

Minio console is a graphical user interface for the for MinIO operator. Minio itself is a multi-cloud object storage project. Affected versions are subject to an authentication bypass issue in the Operator Console when an external IDP is enabled. All users on release v0.12.2 and before are affected and are advised to update to 0.12.3 or newer. Users unable to upgrade should add automountServiceAccountToken: false to the operator-console deployment in Kubernetes so no service account token will get mounted inside the pod, then disable the external identity provider authentication by unset the CONSOLE_IDP_URL, CONSOLE_IDP_CLIENT_ID, CONSOLE_IDP_SECRET and CONSOLE_IDP_CALLBACK environment variable and instead use the Kubernetes service account token.

Authentication bypass issue in the Operator Console in github.com/minio/console

During an internal security audit, we detected an authentication bypass issue in the Operator Console when an external IDP is enabled. The security issue has been reported internally. We have not observed this exploit in the wild or reported elsewhere in the community at large. All users are advised to upgrade ASAP. ### Impact All users on release v0.12.2 and before are affected. ### Patches This issue was fixed by PR https://github.com/minio/console/pull/1217, users should upgrade to latest release. ### Workarounds Add `automountServiceAccountToken: false` to the operator-console deployment in Kubernetes so no service account token will get mounted inside the pod, then disable the external identity provider authentication by unset the `CONSOLE_IDP_URL`, `CONSOLE_IDP_CLIENT_ID`, `CONSOLE_IDP_SECRET` and `CONSOLE_IDP_CALLBACK` environment variable and instead use the Kubernetes service account token. ### References #1217 for more information on the fix and how it was fixed. ### For more information If you have any questions or comments about this advisory: * Open an issue in [console issues](https://github.com/minio/console/issues) * Email us at [security@minio.io](mailto:security@minio.io)

La consola de Minio es una interfaz gráfica de usuario para el operador MinIO. Minio en sí mismo es un proyecto de almacenamiento de objetos multi-nube. Las versiones afectadas están sujetas a un problema de omisión de autenticación en la consola del operador cuando se habilita un IDP externo. Todos los usuarios de la versión v0.12.2 y anteriores están afectados y se les aconseja que actualicen a la versión 0.12.3 o más reciente. Los usuarios que no puedan actualizar deben añadir automountServiceAccountToken: false a la implementación de la consola del operador en Kubernetes para que no se monte ningún token de cuenta de servicio dentro del pod, y luego deshabilitar la autenticación del proveedor de identidad externa desajustando la CONSOLE_IDP_URL, CONSOLE_IDP_CLIENT_ID, CONSOLE_IDP_SECRET y la variable de entorno CONSOLE_IDP_CALLBACK y en su lugar usar el token de cuenta de servicio de Kubernetes
