Details
As written in the advisory (Markdown source, shown as plain text).
A race condition in the secrets management subsystem of Juju versions 3.0.0 through 3.6.18 allows an authenticated unit agent to claim ownership of a newly initialized secret. Between generating a Juju Secret ID and creating the secret's first revision, an attacker authenticated as another unit agent can claim ownership of a known secret. This leads to the attacking unit being able to read the content of the initial secret revision.
### Impact
Between generating a Secret ID and creating the secret's first revision, an
attacker authenticated as another unit agent can claim ownership of a known
secret. This leads to the attacking unit being able to read the content of the
initial secret revision.
### Patches
3.6.19
