Summary
Workarounds
Users can configure the logging level to exclude logs of the INFO level and only generate logs for levels at WARNING or higher. For details on configuring self-hosted Sentry's logging level see our documentation at: https://develop.sentry.dev/config/#logging

Impact
When authenticating as a superuser to a self-hosted Sentry instance with a username and password, the password is leaked as cleartext in logs under the event: auth-index.validate_superuser. An attacker with access to the log data could use these leaked credentials to login to the Sentry system as superuser.
CVE-2024-32474 has a CVSS score of 7.3 (High). The vector is network-reachable, low privileges required, and user interaction required. A CVSS score reflects the worst-case severity of the vulnerability, not your specific exposure. Whether this affects your application depends on whether the vulnerable code is present and reachable in your environment. A fixed version is available (24.4.1); upgrading removes the vulnerable code path.

Kodem intelligence
Severity tells you how bad this could be in the worst case. It does not tell you whether you are exposed. Exploitability and impact are functions of runtime truth: whether the vulnerable code is present, reachable, and actually executes in your application. A vulnerable package can sit in your dependency tree and never run.
Kodem, an Intelligent Application Security platform, uses runtime intelligence to reveal which vulnerabilities actually execute in production, so teams prioritize the ones that genuinely matter. Kodem's runtime-powered SCA identifies whether this CVE is reachable in your applications.
Remediation advice
- Self-hosted users on affected versions should upgrade to 24.4.1 or later.
- Sentry SaaS users do not need to take any action. This vulnerability is not applicable to SaaS.
Frequently Asked Questions
- What is CVE-2024-32474? CVE-2024-32474 is a high-severity security vulnerability in sentry (pip), affecting versions >= 24.3.0, < 24.4.1. It is fixed in 24.4.1.
- How severe is CVE-2024-32474? CVE-2024-32474 has a CVSS score of 7.3 (High). This score reflects the worst-case severity of the vulnerability, not your specific exposure. Whether it represents real risk in your environment depends on whether the vulnerable code is present and reachable.
- Which versions of sentry are affected by CVE-2024-32474? sentry (pip) versions >= 24.3.0, < 24.4.1 is affected.
- Is there a fix for CVE-2024-32474? Yes. CVE-2024-32474 is fixed in 24.4.1. Upgrade to this version or later.
- Is CVE-2024-32474 exploitable, and should I be worried? Whether CVE-2024-32474 is exploitable in your environment depends on whether the vulnerable code is present and reachable. A CVSS score is a worst-case rating; it does not account for your specific deployment, configuration, or usage patterns. Kodem, an Intelligent Application Security platform, uses runtime intelligence to show which vulnerabilities actually execute in production, so you can focus on the ones that represent real risk.

- What actually determines whether CVE-2024-32474 is exploitable, and how bad it is? Exploitability and impact are not fixed properties of a CVE. They depend on runtime truth: whether the vulnerable code is present, reachable, and actually executes in your application. A high CVSS score on a dependency that never runs is not the same as real risk. Kodem, an Intelligent Application Security platform, uses runtime intelligence to reveal which vulnerabilities actually execute in production, so teams prioritize the ones that genuinely matter.
