Couchbase Server before 6.6.3 and 7.x before 7.0.2 stores Sensitive Information in Cleartext. The issue occurs when the cluster manager forwards a HTTP request from the pluggable UI (query workbench etc) to the specific service. In the backtrace, the Basic Auth Header included in the HTTP request, has the "@" user credentials of the node processing the UI request.
In versions of Couchbase Server prior to 5.0, the bucket named "default" was a special bucket that allowed read and write access without authentication. As part of 5.0, the behavior of all buckets including "default" were changed to only allow access by authenticated users with sufficient authorization. However, users were allowed unauthenticated and unauthorized access to the "default" bucket if the properties of this bucket were edited. This has been fixed in versions 5.1.0 and 5.5.0.
In Couchbase Server 5.0.0, when an invalid Remote Cluster Certificate was entered as part of the reference creation, XDCR did not parse and check the certificate signature. It then accepted the invalid certificate and attempted to use it to establish future connections to the remote cluster. This has been fixed in version 5.5.0. XDCR now checks the validity of the certificate thoroughly and prevents a remote cluster reference from being created with an invalid certificate.
An issue was discovered in Couchbase Server 5.x and 6.x before 6.5.2 and 6.6.x before 6.6.2. Internal users with administrator privileges, @cbq-engine-cbauth and @index-cbauth, leak credentials in cleartext in the indexer.log file when they make a /listCreateTokens, /listRebalanceTokens, or /listMetadataTokens call.
An issue was discovered in Couchbase Server 5.x and 6.x through 6.6.1 and 7.0.0 Beta. Incorrect commands to the REST API can result in leaked authentication information being stored in cleartext in the debug.log and info.log files, and is also shown in the UI visible to administrators.
An issue was discovered in Couchbase Server before 6.6.5 and 7.x before 7.0.4. Previous mitigations for CVE-2018-15728 were found to be insufficient when it was discovered that diagnostic endpoints could still be accessed from the network.
Couchbase Server 5.x through 7.x before 7.0.4 exposes Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor.
