{"cve":"CVE-2022-31044","nvd":{"published":"2022-06-15T19:15:11.173","modified":"2026-06-17T04:44:40.550","status":"Modified","description":"Rundeck is an open source automation service with a web console, command line tools and a WebAPI. The Key Storage converter plugin mechanism was not enabled correctly in Rundeck 4.2.0 and 4.2.1, resulting in use of the encryption layer for Key Storage possibly not working. Any credentials created or overwritten using Rundeck 4.2.0 or 4.2.1 might result in them being written in plaintext to the backend storage. This affects those using any `Storage Converter` plugin. Rundeck 4.3.1 and 4.2.2 have fixed the code and upon upgrade will re-encrypt any plain text values. Version 4.3.0 does not have the vulnerability, but does not include the patch to re-encrypt plain text values if 4.2.0 or 4.2.1 were used. To prevent plaintext credentials from being stored in Rundeck 4.2.0/4.2.1, write access to key storage can be disabled via ACLs. After upgrading to 4.3.1 or later, write access can be restored.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N","score":7.5},"cwes":["CWE-256","CWE-522"],"references":["https://github.com/rundeck/rundeck/security/advisories/GHSA-hprf-rrwq-jm5c","https://github.com/rundeck/rundeck/security/advisories/GHSA-hprf-rrwq-jm5c"],"products":["pagerduty:rundeck"],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T21:32:39.174919249+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2022-31044","score":0.00683,"percentile":0.52555,"date":"2026-10-31"},"kev":null,"osv":[{"id":"GHSA-hprf-rrwq-jm5c","url":"https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-hprf-rrwq-jm5c","summary":"Rundeck's Key Storage converter plugin mechanism's encryption layer not working in 4.2.0, 4.2.1, 4.3.0","modified":"2023-11-08T04:09:23.818733Z","packages":[{"ecosystem":"Maven","name":"org.rundeck:rundeck","purl":"pkg:maven/org.rundeck/rundeck","ranges":[">=4.2.0 <4.2.2"],"fixed":["4.2.2"]},{"ecosystem":"Maven","name":"org.rundeck:rundeck","purl":"pkg:maven/org.rundeck/rundeck","ranges":[">=4.3.0 <4.3.1"],"fixed":["4.3.1"]}]}],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
