CVE-2023-46255
MEDIUM4.2EPSS 0.17%SpiceDB leaks information in log files when URI cannot be parsed
Published: 10/31/2023Modified: 2/4/2026
Description
SpiceDB is an open source, Google Zanzibar-inspired database for creating and managing security-critical application permissions. When the provided datastore URI is malformed (e.g. by having a password which contains `:`) the full URI (including the provided password) is printed, so that the password is shown in the logs. Version 1.27.0-rc1 patches this issue. Example output: ``` terminated with errors error="unable to create migration driver for postgres: parse \"postgres://spicedb:<PASSWORD IN PLAINTEXT>": invalid port \"<PASSWORD IN PLAINTEXT>\" after host" ```
