F5 ≫ Nginx Controller

The Nginx Controller 3.x before 3.7.0 agent configuration file /etc/controller-agent/agent.conf is world readable with current permission bits set to 644.

The NAAS 3.x before 3.10.0 API keys were generated using an insecure pseudo-random string and hashing algorithm which could lead to predictable keys.

The NGINX Controller 2.0.0 thru 2.9.0 and 3.x before 3.15.0 Administrator password may be exposed in the systemd.txt file that is included in the NGINX support package.

Intra-cluster communication does not use TLS. The services within the NGINX Controller 3.x before 3.4.0 namespace are using cleartext protocols inside the cluster.

In versions 3.0.0-3.9.0, 2.0.0-2.9.0, and 1.0.1, the NGINX Controller Agent does not use absolute paths when calling system utilities.

In versions 3.0.0-3.5.0, 2.0.0-2.9.0, and 1.0.1, the NGINX Controller installer starts the download of Kubernetes packages from an HTTP URL On Debian/Ubuntu system.

In versions 3.0.0-3.5.0, 2.0.0-2.9.0, and 1.0.1, the Neural Autonomic Transport System (NATS) messaging services in use by the NGINX Controller do not require any form of authentication, so any successful connection would be authorized.

In versions 3.0.0-3.5.0, 2.0.0-2.9.0, and 1.0.1, when users run the command displayed in NGINX Controller user interface (UI) to fetch the agent installer, the server TLS certificate is not verified.

In NGINX Controller 3.3.0-3.4.0, undisclosed API endpoints may allow for a reflected Cross Site Scripting (XSS) attack. If the victim user is logged in as admin this could result in a complete compromise of the system.

In NGINX Controller 3.0.0-3.4.0, recovery code required to change a user's password is transmitted and stored in the database in plain text, which allows an attacker who can intercept the database connection or have read access to the database, to re...
