Description:
Overview:
In May through June of 2016 a static analysis was performed on version 3.0.5 of
the Cassandra source code. The analysis included an automated analysis using HP
Fortify v4.21 SCA and a manual analysis utilizing SciTools Understand v4. The
results of that analysis includes the issue below.
Issue:
In the file CqlConfigHelper.java on lines 508, 533, 534 and 592 a string object
is used to store sensitive data. String objects are immutable and should not be
used to store sensitive data. Sensitive data should be stored in char or byte
arrays and the contents of those arrays should be cleared ASAP. Operations
performed on string objects will require that the original object be copied and
the operation be applied in the new copy of the string object. This results in
the likelihood that multiple copies of sensitive data will be present in the
heap until garbage collection takes place.
The snippet below shows the issue on line 508:
CqlConfigHelper.java, lines 505-518:
{code:java}
505 private static Optional getDefaultAuthProvider(Configuration
conf)
506 {
507 Optional username = getStringSetting(USERNAME, conf);
508 Optional password = getStringSetting(PASSWORD, conf);
