openshift-node in OpenShift Origin 1.1.6 and earlier improperly stores router credentials as envvars in the pod when the --credentials option is used, which allows local users to obtain sensitive private key information by reading the systemd journal.

Security readout for executives and security teams

OpenShift Origin could expose router private key material in logs when a specific credentials option was used. The issue matters because local users who can read the systemd journal may recover secrets that protect routing infrastructure. Exposure appears limited to OpenShift Origin 1.1.6 and earlier deployments using the openshift-node --credentials option, with local users able to read relevant systemd journal entries. Handle as a targeted secret-exposure issue. Prioritize environments running old OpenShift Origin versions with shared local access or broad journal visibility, especially where router keys protect production traffic. Mitigation focus: Identify OpenShift Origin deployments at version 1.1.6 or earlier.; Check vendor and project guidance for fixed versions or configuration changes.; Avoid using affected credential handling where vendor-supported alternatives exist..
