Overview

github.com/hashicorp/nomad/nomad is an easy-to-use, flexible, and performant workload orchestrator that can deploy a mix of microservice, batch, containerized, and non-containerized applications. Nomad is easy to operate and scale and has native Consul and Vault integrations.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Insufficient Session Expiration such that an event stream subscriber using an ACL token with an expiry TTL set would continue to receive events until the token was garbage collected. This behavior may be used by a malicious operator or third party with authenticated access to continue to receive events beyond the time limit their token should be allowed to.
