多个公开来源
广泛使用的代码托管平台GitHub披露,超过4000个代码包易受RepoJacking攻击。Checkmarx研究人员发现的这一漏洞引起了开源社区的担忧,并促使GitHub迅速采取行动。 另见: Ziggo集团任命领导人,备战2027年阿姆斯特丹上市.
RepoJacking攻击解释 另见: ECHOES 协会.
RepoJacking(仓库劫持)是威胁行为者用来控制仓库的一种技术。这种攻击方法利用了GitHub仓库创建和用户名重命名过程之间的竞争条件。本质上,攻击者在合法创建者更改用户名后,声称拥有仓库的旧用户名。然后,他们发布一个同名的恶意仓库,欺骗用户下载恶意内容。 另见: IT部门 - Athlok.
该漏洞的后果影响深远。它影响了包括Go、PHP和Swift等编程语言在内的4000多个代码包,以及GitHub Actions。许多这些包已经获得了显著的流行度,拥有超过1000颗星。我们尚未发现这对数百万用户和各种应用程序的潜在影响。 另见: Alejandro Estua.
GitHub的回应 另见: 亚历杭德罗·曼佐.
Checkmarx于2023年3月1日负责任地向GitHub披露了这一漏洞,促使该平台采取行动。GitHub引入了“流行仓库命名空间退役”机制来防止RepoJacking。通过这一安全措施,在用户名更改时克隆次数超过100次的仓库被视为“已退役”,他人无法使用。用户名和仓库名的组合也被视为“已退役”。 另见: 亚历杭德罗·埃尔南德斯.
然而,这一安全措施被证明很容易被绕过。Checkmarx在包管理器中识别出超过4000个使用了已重命名用户名的包,使它们面临被劫持的风险。 另见: 亚历杭德罗·加尔萨.
攻击如何运作 另见: Alejandro Guerrero.
Checkmarx概述了RepoJacking攻击涉及的步骤:
- 受害者拥有命名空间“victim_user/repo”。
- 受害者将“victim_user”重命名为“renamed_user”。
- “victim_user/repo”仓库变为已退役。
- 用户名为“attacker_user”的攻击者同时创建一个名为“repo”的仓库,并将用户名“attacker_user”重命名为“victim_user”。
这是通过用于仓库创建的API请求和用于用户名更改的重命名请求拦截来实现的。
持续的漏洞
这一发现显示了GitHub“流行仓库命名空间退役”机制相关的持续风险。许多GitHub用户,包括控制流行仓库和包的用户,选择使用GitHub提供的“用户重命名”功能。这使得绕过“流行仓库命名空间退役”成为供应链攻击者的一个有吸引力的目标。
GitHub采取果断行动
在Checkmarx负责任地披露后,GitHub已于2023年9月1日解决了该问题。鉴于这一漏洞,建议用户避免使用已退役的命名空间,以尽量减少攻击面。此外,建议进行全面的代码审查,以确保没有可能导致仓库劫持的依赖关系。
Checkmarx发现的GitHub漏洞显示了对开源项目的持续威胁。随着攻击方法的不断演变,用户需要保持警惕。
