Summary

Generation of Error Message Containing Sensitive Information vulnerability in ash-project ash discloses the stored value of a confirmed field to an actor who fails its confirmation check.

Ash.Resource.Validation.Confirm's atomic implementation (atomic/2 in lib/ash/resource/validation/confirm.ex) built the mismatch error with its value set to the field being confirmed. When the actor supplies only the confirmation argument and not the field itself, value resolves through atomic_ref/2 to the field's current stored value, so the mismatch error echoes that stored value back to the actor. Against a confirmation guarding a sensitive attribute, an actor can submit a deliberately wrong confirmation and read the real value from the returned error. The fix reports the actor-supplied confirmation in the error instead of the stored field value.

This issue affects ash: from 2.17.20 before 3.32.2.

Fencer Intel keeps one entry per vulnerability: the CVE id wins, then GHSA, and records that alias each other are merged, except that two CVEs always keep separate entries. The same data is available as JSON.

The maintainers of ash-project/ash published their own advisory on GitHub. Reviewed sources take precedence over it.

CPEs and fixed versions use Anchore's correction of NVD's data: Added CPE configurations because not yet analyzed by NVD.
