OPA is an open source, general-purpose policy engine. Under certain conditions, pretty-printing an abstract syntax tree (AST) that contains synthetic nodes could change the logic of some statements by reordering array literals. Example of policies impacted are those that parse and compare web paths. All of these three conditions have to be met to create an adverse effect: 1. An AST of Rego had to becreated programmaticallysuch that it ends up containing terms without a location (such as wildcard variables). 2. The AST had to bepretty-printedusing the github.com/open-policy-agent/opa/format package. 3. The result of the pretty-printing had to beparsed and evaluated againvia an OPA instance using the bundles, or the Golang packages. If any of these three conditions are not met, you are not affected. Notably, all three would be true if usingoptimized bundles, i.e. bundles created with opa build -O=1 or higher. In that case, the optimizer would fulfil condition (1.), the result of that would be pretty-printed when writing the bundle to disk, fulfilling (2.). When the bundle was then used, we’d satisfy (3.). As a workaround users may disable optimization when creating bundles.
