CVE-2024-58375
HighCVSS 7.5Exploitation Probability (EPSS)
Low risk35th percentile - higher than 35% of all known CVEs
Summary
OpenTofu versions 1.8.0 through 1.8.2 do not properly restrict sensitive variables and locals when users have opted into static evaluation of module sources, versions, and backend configurations. As a result, values marked as sensitive may be exposed through these configuration elements instead of producing an error. This is fixed in OpenTofu 1.8.3, which adds explicit errors to prevent the use of sensitive values in these contexts.
Risk Assessment
Sensitive data such as passwords or API keys may be exposed in configuration, posing a serious security breach risk.
Recommendation
Upgrade OpenTofu to version 1.8.3 or later, which adds explicit errors for sensitive values in configuration.
Other vulnerabilities in OpenTofu
See all- CVE-2026-74797Low
OpenTofu versions before 1.11.4 contain a denial of service vulnerability in the tofu init command when processing maliciously-crafted .zip archives for provider or module packages. Attackers can cause excessive CPU usage by controlling .zip archive content served during dependency installation, degrading system performance and preventing timely completion of the init process.
- CVE-2026-74796Medium
OpenTofu before 1.11.7 fails to validate existing symlinks in the provider cache directory during initialization. Attackers can place a malicious symlink in a trusted working directory to cause tofu init to write provider package contents to arbitrary filesystem locations outside the working tree.
