CVE-2013-4959: Puppet Enterprise before 3.0.1 uses HTTP responses that contain sensitive information without the "no-cache...

Puppet Enterprise before 3.0.1 uses HTTP responses that contain sensitive information without the "no-cache" setting, which might allow local users to obtain sensitive information such as (1) host name, (2) MAC address, and (3) SSH keys via the web browser cache.

Security readout for executives and security teams

Puppet Enterprise versions before 3.0.1 could let sensitive data be stored in a web browser cache. A local user with access to that cache might recover information such as host names, MAC addresses, or SSH keys. The public record does not provide CVSS scoring or confirmed exploitation. Exposure appears limited to Puppet Enterprise deployments earlier than 3.0.1, especially where administrative browsers or workstations are shared, weakly isolated, or locally accessible by other users. Prioritize if legacy Puppet Enterprise is still present or admin workstations are shared. Business risk is credential exposure, but evidence is incomplete and no active exploitation is cited. Mitigation focus: Identify any Puppet Enterprise installations older than 3.0.1.; Upgrade affected Puppet Enterprise systems to 3.0.1 or later.; Review Puppet vendor guidance for cache cleanup or credential handling steps..
