Apache APISIX < 2.13.1 Information Disclosure

high Nessus Plugin ID 161734

Language:

Synopsis

An application installed on the remote host is missing a vendor-supplied update.

Description

The version of Apache APISIX installed on the remote host is prior to 2.13.1. It is, therefore, potentially affected by an information disclosure vulnerability because the jwt-auth plugin has a security issue that leaks the user's secret key because the error message returned from the dependency lua-resty-jwt contains sensitive information.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to Apache APISIX version 2.13.1 or later.
