![AWS, Google, and Azure CLI Tools Could Leak Credentials in Build Logs](https://cybersigna.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/AWS-Google-and-Azure-CLI-Tools-Could-Leak-Credentials-in-Build-Logs.png)
New cybersecurity research has found that command-line interface (CLI) tools from Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Google Cloud can expose sensitive credentials in build logs, posing significant risks to organizations. The vulnerability has been codenamed LeakyCLI by cloud security firm Orca. “Some commands on Azure CLI, AWS CLI, and Google Cloud CLI can expose sensitive information in the form of environment variables, which can be collected by adversaries when published by tools such as GitHub Actions,” security researcher Roi Nisimi said in a report shared with The Hacker News. Microsoft has since addressed the issue as part of security updates released in November 2023, assigned it the CVE identifier CVE-2023-36052 (CVSS score: 8.6). The idea, in a nutshell, has to do with how the CLI commands such as could be used to show (pre-)defined environment variables and output to Continuous Integration and Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) logs. A list of such commands spanning AWS and Google Cloud is below 0 aws lambda get-function-configuration aws lambda get-function aws lambda update-function-configuration aws lambda update-function-code aws lambda publish-version gcloud functions deploy
