Descriptions

Vault and Vault Enterprise did not properly validate the JSON Web Token (JWT) role-bound audience claim when using the Vault JWT auth method. This may have resulted in Vault validating a JWT the audience and role-bound claims do not match, allowing an invalid login to succeed when it should have been rejected. This vulnerability, CVE-2024-5798, was fixed in Vault and Vault Enterprise 1.17.0, 1.16.3, and 1.15.9

Vault y Vault Enterprise no validaron correctamente la reclamación de audiencia vinculada a roles JSON Web Token (JWT) al utilizar el método de autenticación Vault JWT. Esto puede haber provocado que Vault valide un JWT en el que las afirmaciones de audiencia y roles no coinciden, lo que permitió que un inicio de sesión no válido se realizara correctamente cuando debería haber sido rechazado. Esta vulnerabilidad, CVE-2024-5798, se solucionó en Vault y Vault Enterprise 1.17.0, 1.16.3 y 1.15.9.
