An issue was discovered in TigerGraph Enterprise Free Edition 3.x. There is unsecured read access to an SSH private key. Any code that runs as the tigergraph user is able to read the SSH private key. With this, an attacker is granted password-less SSH access to all machines in the TigerGraph cluster.
