NewCVE-2025-27414 (opens in a new tab)How to fix?
Upgrade github.com/minio/minio/cmd to version RELEASE.2025-02-28T09-55-16Z or higher.
Overview
github.com/minio/minio/cmd is an open source object storage server compatible with Amazon S3 APIs.
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Improper Authentication due to a flaw in the evaluation of SSH key trust during SFTP connections. An attacker can bypass authentication and access unauthorized data by exploiting the absence of the sshPublicKey property in LDAP for a given user.
Note:
This is only exploitable if the MinIO server is configured for SFTP access using LDAP as an external identity provider, the attacker knows an LDAP username without the sshPublicKey property, and the LDAP username or their groups have MinIO access policies configured.
