Summary
Hard-coded System User Credentials in Folio Data Export Spring module
Details

Impact

The module creates a system user that is used to perform internal module-to-module operations. Credentials for this user are hard-coded in the source code. This makes it trivial to authenticate as this user, allowing unauthorized read access to these mod-inventory-storage records: instances, holdings, items, contributor-types, identifier-types. This includes records marked as suppressed from discovery.

Patches

Upgrade mod-remote-storage to >=2.0.3, or a 1.7.x version >=1.7.1.

Workarounds

No known workarounds.
