Database & Storage, Supply Chain & Dependencies

RustFS distributed object storage system contains a vulnerability where the internode RPC authentication layer falls back to a hardcoded default secret key 'rustfsadmin' when proper configuration is missing. The vulnerability affects versions prior to 1.0.0-beta.2 and occurs in the get_shared_secret() function in crates/ecstore/src/rpc/http_auth.rs. This allows potential unauthorized access to internode communications using the publicly known default HMAC-SHA256 signature key. The issue is resolved in version 1.0.0-beta.2.
