CVSS v3.1
Official Description
Unauthenticated access to cloudtoken daemon on Linux via network from version 0.1.1 before version 0.1.24 allows attackers on the same subnet to gain temporary AWS credentials for the users' roles.
Technical Analysis
CVE-2018-13390 requires adjacent network access, limiting remote exploitation but still posing risk in shared or local network environments.
The vulnerability requires no privileges and no user interaction, making it a prime target for automated exploitation campaigns and worm-like propagation.
The vulnerability has a "Changed" scope, meaning successful exploitation can impact components beyond the vulnerable component itself — such as the host operating system or adjacent services.
