Publication Date: 23 March, 2021
Summary
Terraform Enterprise did not enforce the organization-level setting to require all users within an organization to enable two-factor authentication. This vulnerability, CVE-2021-3153, was fixed in Terraform Enterprise v202103-1.
Background
Terraform Enterprise organizations are a shared space for teams to collaborate on workspaces in. Organization owners may configure their organization to require all members to enable two-factor authentication.
Details
It was discovered that Terraform Enterprise did not enforce the organization-level setting which required all users within an organization to enable two-factor authentication. It was possible for individual users to be added to an organization without having two-factor authentication, even when that organization-level setting was enabled.
Note that the two-factor authentication mechanism itself was not affected by this vulnerability, has been tested, and remains effective.
Remediation
Terraform Enterprise customers should evaluate the risk associated with this issue and consider upgrading to v202103-1 or newer.
