CVE-2020-15085: Client caching login operation with plaintext password in Saleor Storefront

In Saleor Storefront before version 2.10.3, request data used to authenticate customers was inadvertently cached in the browser's local storage mechanism, including credentials. A malicious user with direct access to the browser could extract the email and password. In versions prior to 2.10.0 persisted the cache even after the user logged out. This is fixed in version 2.10.3. A workaround is to manually clear application data (browser's local storage) after logging into Saleor Storefront.

Security readout for executives and security teams

Plain-English summary

Some Saleor Storefront versions saved customer login credentials in browser storage. Anyone with direct access to that browser could potentially read the email and password. This is most concerning on shared, kiosk, or compromised devices. The vendor fixed it in version 2.10.3.

Executive priority

Treat as a moderate confidentiality risk. It is not evidenced as actively exploited, but plaintext password exposure can create customer account and brand risk, especially on shared devices.

Technical view

Saleor Storefront before 2.10.3 cached customer authentication request data in browser local storage, including credentials. The issue maps to CWE-312. Sources state versions before 2.10.0 persisted the cache even after logout. The vendor fixed the behavior in 2.10.3 and named manual clearing of browser application data as a workaround.

Likely exposure

Exposure is limited to organizations running mirumee saleor-storefront versions earlier than 2.10.3. The highest-risk scenarios are shared endpoints, customer service devices, public terminals, or browsers later accessed by another person.

Exploitation context

The source bundle does not show KEV listing or active exploitation. Abuse requires user interaction and direct access to the affected browser storage after a customer login. The provided evidence does not support remote exploitation claims.

Researcher notes

The key condition is client-side local storage retention of authentication request data. Validate only with test accounts and avoid collecting real user passwords. Evidence is clear on affected version range, fixed version, and workaround.

Mitigation direction

  • Upgrade Saleor Storefront to version 2.10.3 or later.
  • Manually clear browser application data after login where upgrade is not immediate.
  • Prioritize shared, kiosk, support, and customer-facing browser environments.
  • Review the vendor advisory and changelog before production rollout.

Validation and detection

  • Inventory deployed Saleor Storefront versions and identify anything below 2.10.3.
  • Using a test account, check whether login credentials persist in browser local storage.
  • Confirm logout no longer leaves cached authentication request data behind.
  • Verify affected browsers had application data cleared during interim mitigation.
