[BUG] S3 bucket takeover at https://github.com/Wolox/carthage_cache/blob/d9a1ec9ef6947c45d19d4736919bedde7e4f26a9/spec/fixtures/project/.carthage_cache.yml#L4 #57

Description

@bhartisaurav

There was a unclaimed s3 bucket at

:bucket_name: carthage-cache
:aws_s3_client_options:
:region: us-west-2
.

Using an unclaimed s3 bucket could be harmful because if user access it even by mistake could be fatal which could lead to XSS or arbitrary malicious code injection. So for safety i have takeover the bucket.

Impact

  1. An unknown unclaimed s3 bucket which could be fatal for the users. It can easily lead the user to XSS or arbitrary code injection at users end or in worst case can lead RCE also

  2. Public Perception:This repository belongs to a reputed organization (i.e. Wolox), a missing or misconfigured resource could signal poor quality assurance practices and reduce user trust which will have finanical impact.

  3. Loss of Credibility: Other developers or organizations using this code might view the repository as unreliable, especially if this bug leads to a visible issue.

Remediation:

  1. Remove the bucket or replace it with another bucket.

  2. If you want the same bucket I will delete/unclaim the bucket.
