Description

Security fixes

This patch addresses two security vulnerabilities.
Impacted users are recommended to upgrade their auth and database services to the latest version.
For Teleport Cloud customers, your control plane has already been upgraded to a patched release.

[High] Cross-node session recording access

When checking system service access to session recordings and audit logs, Teleport did not
perform sufficient authorization. This could allow a compromised Teleport SSH node service to
access audit events and session recordings from other nodes in the cluster.
All users are advised to upgrade their Auth services to the patched v17 release.

[Medium] SSRF via AWS database access endpoint

Teleport did not sufficiently validate the connection endpoint for AWS database access
(DynamoDB, OpenSearch, Keyspaces). This could allow a malicious actor with access to Teleport
configuration to steal database access credentials by crafting a connection endpoint pointing to
their domain.
All users that use Teleport to access AWS-hosted databases (DynamoDB, OpenSearch, Keyspaces)
are advised to upgrade their auth and database services to the patched v17 release
