clevis: A flaw was found in the clevis PKCS#11 pin
CVE-2026-109970 is fixed in clevis on 1 platform by DEBIAN-CVE-2026-109970 (version 24-1), released October 28, 2026. It is not reported as exploited. Patch Radar priority: Routine.
A flaw was found in the clevis PKCS#11 pin. The clevis-luks-pkcs11-askpin script writes the PKCS#11 token PIN in plaintext to a file without setting restrictive permissions. Under the default process umask, the file is world-readable. Additionally, the PIN file is not reliably cleaned up if the decryption script exits early, leaving the PIN accessible indefinitely.
