01
What, why and how
HashiCorp Consul Template up to 0.27.2, 0.28.2, and 0.29.1 may expose the contents of Vault secrets in the error returned by the *template.Template.Execute method, when given a template using Vault secret contents incorrectly. Fixed in 0.27.3, 0.28.3, and 0.29.2.
What
HashiCorp Consul Template up to 0.27.2, 0.28.2, and 0.29.1 may expose the contents of Vault secrets in the error returned by the *template.Template.Execute method, when given a template using Vault secret contents incorrectly. Fixed in 0.27.3, 0.28.3, and 0.29.2.
Why
The product writes sensitive information to a log file.
How
An attacker operating through a network path may attempt exploitation without authentication or user interaction. If successful, the issue may cause the confidentiality, integrity or availability impact described by the vendor.

Exploit reality and attack path
CVSS severity, EPSS forecast probability, public exploit material and CISA-confirmed exploitation are separate signals.
Observed exploitation ?Confirmed exploitation and public exploit material are separate signals. Attacks can occur without public proof-of-concept or exploit code.No confirmed evidence
No CISA KEV match was present at the last successful refresh. This means no confirmation from that source, not proof of no exploitation.
Public PoC / exploit material ?Confirmed exploitation and public exploit material are separate signals. Attacks can occur without public proof-of-concept or exploit code.None recorded
No exploit-tagged reference or CISA SSVC proof-of-concept state is currently recorded. Research may still exist outside the structured feeds.
Likely attack path
