QID 731128: Prometheus Sensitive Information Disclosure
Prometheus is an open-source systems monitoring and alerting toolkit .
It may results from a large-scale unauthenticated scraping of publicly available and non-secured Prometheus endpoints, which contain many types of sensitive data that were exposed, often without the developers knowledge.
QID Detection Logic (Un-Authenticated)
It sends GET request to /api/v1/status/config and /api/v1/targets to check for sensitive information leaks.
It may leak sensitive information like configuration details of endpoints.
Solution
Although Prometheus did not have any built-in security features in the past, basic authentication and TLS were added in version 2.24.0. Enable Basic authentication and TLS security feature. Refer this for more information.
