On May 20, 2024, Tenable Research discovered a critical memory corruption vulnerability dubbed Linguistic Lumberjack in Fluent Bit (CVE-2024-4323), a core component in the monitoring infrastructure of many cloud services. Sumo Logic has updated all applicable systems to ensure we are not vulnerable and is continuing to monitor our corporate security posture as well as our third-party vendors to ensure they are dealing with the situation as appropriate.

From an open source perspective, although by default none of our solutions are exposed to the internet, some do leverage the impacted versions of Fluent Bit. We have released updated versions in those instances. See below for details.

• Tailing sidecar operator version 0.13.0 contains the fix.

• Kubernetes Collection Helm Chart v4.7.1 contains the above fix.

• Kubernetes Collection Helm Chart v3.19.3 contains the above fix and a separate upgrade to Fluent Bit.

• No upgrades available for Kubernetes Collection Helm Chart version 2. Support for this version ended on 2023-07-20. Customers are encouraged to upgrade to v4.7.1.

• No upgrades available for Helm Operator. An upgrade to version 4 of the Helm Chart (where there’s no Fluent Bit) is in progress.

We will continue to monitor and update as appropriate.

To our valued customers:

We want to provide you with an update on Sumo Logic’s recent security incident. We take the safety and reliability of our platform seriously. This is why we took immediate action to secure our platform as soon as we detected a potential security incident, including the recommendation to rotate all credentials.

We are grateful to share that the diligent investigation led by our security and engineering teams uncovered no proof of customer data impact and no threat of customer data impact present. These findings were verified by third-party forensic experts and the investigation of this incident is now complete and closed.

We remain committed to providing all of our customers with secure and reliable digital experience and are doing everything we can to emerge safer from this incident. To that end, we will be undertaking additional evaluation to learn from this incident and identify any measures or modifications to prevent future incidents.

As we have done throughout this process, we encourage you to keep an eye on the Security Response Center where we have posted pertinent updates. We also would like to provide you with additional tools and information.

FURTHER STEPS YOU CAN TAKE

While this investigation is complete and closed, and there is no proof of customer data impact and no threat of customer data impact present, Sumo Logic is providing the Indicators of Compromise (IOCs) and supporting documentation so customers can inspect their own environments, which we recommend.

How to Inspect Your Own Environments

As we formally close this investigation, we want to share some of the techniques we used internally, leveraging the Sumo Logic platform to further guide you in further inspecting your environments and ensuring your security posture.

We used our own solutions within Sumo Logic. In this particular instance, we used both our Cloud SIEM to search our environment for Indicators of Compromise (IOCs) and malicious IPs. In addition, we also used our Cloud Infrastructure Security (CIS) solution for enterprise audit activities such as access key creation, deletion and active vs. inactive. Below is a sample query you can run within your Sumo Logic instance. This will return any source categories where the IOCs are present and will show you where to do further investigation.

Example Search in Sumo Logic

Sumo Logic has validated that we do not use any part of the vulnerable Spring Cloud framework found in CVE-2022-22963. We have also reviewed CVE-2022-22965 and have validated that Sumo Logic is not vulnerable to known exploitable methods. Out of an abundance of caution, we will be updating our Sumo Logic Service; however, no action is required on your part. The Sumo Logic collector is not vulnerable to known Spring Cloud framework exploitation methods.

Our Global Operations Center investigated Okta’s evolving situation as Sumo Logic currently leverages Okta's federated identity solution. So far we have no evidence that Sumo Logic, our employees or services are impacted in any way.

Beginning early in the morning on Dec. 10th, Sumo Logic’s security team investigated and validated the nature and severity of the exploit against potential points of compromise and determined that at NO time was Sumo Logic exploited.

We use a custom SumoLog4Layout library that never invokes custom lookups (as compared to Apache Log4j) so the Sumo Logic Service was never impacted.
