    rpassword affected by partial password reveal when input is interrupted

    GHSA-2p6r-x3vv-xqm2

    Affected
    • crates.io rpassword <= 7.4.0
    Fixed in
    7.5.0· Vendor fix available
    Issue
    rpassword maintainers were made aware of a possible issue with a partial password reveal when input is interrupted. To quote @squell: @conradkleinespel I've confirmed this problem with SequoiaPGP, which I think uses rpassword, e.g.: Suppose we use pkill -9 sq in a different terminal right after the password has been typed in: $ sq key generate --userid "barf" --with-password Enter password to protect the key: Killed $ hello^C Where the password I typed in is "hello". This has been fixed in version v7.5.0 and above.

    Recommended action: Upgrade to 7.5.0 or later, then redeploy and verify.A vendor fix does not resolve your finding until you verify it in your own systems.
