Summary
OneUptime has broken access control in GitHub App installation flow that allows unauthorized project binding
Details

Summary

OneUptime's GitHub App callback trusts attacker-controlled state and installation_id values and updates Project.gitHubAppInstallationId with isRoot: true without validating that the caller is authorized for the target project. This allows an attacker to overwrite another project's GitHub App installation binding.

Related GitHub endpoints also lack effective authorization, so a valid installation ID can be used to enumerate repositories and create CodeRepository records in an arbitrary project.

Details

The callback decodes unsigned base64 JSON from state and uses the embedded projectId directly:

  • https://github.com/OneUptime/oneuptime/blob/master/Common/Server/API/GitHubAPI.ts#L34-L112

It then writes the supplied installation_id into the target project with root privileges:

await ProjectService.updateOneById({
  id: new ObjectID(projectId),
  data: { gitHubAppInstallationId: installationId },
  props: { isRoot: true },
});

The userId in state is only checked for presence, not authenticity:

  • https://github.com/OneUptime/oneuptime/blob/master/Common/Server/API/GitHubAPI.ts#L73-L79

The install flow also generates state as plain base64 JSON, not a signed or session-bound token:

  • https://github.com/OneUptime/oneuptime/blob/master/Common/Server/API/GitHubAPI.ts#L127-L165

The follow-on endpoints are also vulnerable:

  • Repository listing: https://github.com/OneUptime/oneuptime/blob/master/Common/Server/API/GitHubAPI.ts#L179-L258
  • Repository connect: https://github.com/OneUptime/oneuptime/blob/master/Common/Server/API/GitHubAPI.ts#L260-L356
  • Middleware allows requests with no token to continue as Public: https://github.com/OneUptime/oneuptime/blob/master/Common/Server/Middleware/UserAuthorization.ts#L205-L211
  • Installation tokens are minted from any valid installation ID: https://github.com/OneUptime/oneuptime/blob/master/Common/Server/Utils/CodeRepository/GitHub/GitHub.ts#L347-L425

PoC

Minimal proof of unauthorized project tampering:

STATE=$(printf '%s' '{"projectId":"<victim-project-uuid>","userId":"x"}' | base64 | tr -d '\n')
curl -isk "https://<host>/api/github/auth/callback?installation_id=999999999&state=${STATE}"

Expected result:

  • Server returns a 302 redirect to /dashboard/<victim-project-uuid>/code-repository?installation_id=999999999
  • The target project's gitHubAppInstallationId is overwritten

Impact

  • Unauthorized modification of Project.gitHubAppInstallationId
  • Temporary GitHub integration breakage if a bogus installation ID is set
  • Cross-project binding of attacker-controlled GitHub App installations
  • Repository metadata disclosure for a supplied valid installation ID
  • Unauthorized creation of CodeRepository records in arbitrary projects

Summary
Duplicate Advisory: Improper Authorization in Gogs
Details

Duplicate Advisory

This advisory has been withdrawn because it is a duplicate of GHSA-gw5h-h6hj-f56g. This link is maintained to preserve external references.

Original Description

Impact

Expired PAM accounts and accounts with expired passwords are continued to be seen as valid. Installations use PAM as authentication sources are affected.

Patches

Expired PAM accounts and accounts with expired passwords are no longer being seen as valid. Users should upgrade to 0.12.5 or the latest 0.13.0+dev.

Workarounds

In addition to marking PAM accounts as expired, also disable/lock them. Running usermod -L <username> will add an exclamation mark to the password hash and would result in wrong passwords responses when trying to login.

Installations use PAM as authentication sources are affected.\n\n### Patches\n\nExpired PAM accounts and accounts with expired passwords are no longer being seen as valid. Users should upgrade to 0.12.5 or the latest 0.13.0+dev.\n\n### Workarounds\n\nIn addition to marking PAM accounts as expired, also disable/lock them. Running `usermod -L \u003cusername\u003e` will add an exclamation mark to the password hash and would result in wrong passwords responses when trying to login. \n\n### References\n\nhttps://huntr.dev/bounties/ea82cfc9-b55c-41fe-ae58-0d0e0bd7ab62/\n\n### For more information\n\nIf you have any questions or comments about this advisory, please post on https://github.com/gogs/gogs/issues/6810.\n",

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2025-12-13 18:30 – Updated: 2025-12-13 18:30
VLAI
Details

The Gallery Blocks with Lightbox. Image Gallery, (HTML5 video , YouTube, Vimeo) Video Gallery and Lightbox for native gallery plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification of plugin settings in all versions up to, and including, 3.3.0. This is due to the plugin using the edit_posts capability check instead of manage_options for the update_option action type in the pgc_sgb_action_wizard AJAX handler. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to modify arbitrary plugin settings prefixed with pgc_sgb_*.

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2024-03-13 18:31 – Updated: 2026-04-08 18:32
VLAI
Details

The ArtiBot Free Chat Bot for WordPress WebSites plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification of data due to a missing capability check on the artibot_update function in all versions up to, and including, 1.1.6. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with subscriber-level access and above, to update plugin settings.

Mitigation
Architecture and Design
  • Divide the product into anonymous, normal, privileged, and administrative areas. Reduce the attack surface by carefully mapping roles with data and functionality. Use role-based access control (RBAC) [REF-229] to enforce the roles at the appropriate boundaries.
  • Note that this approach may not protect against horizontal authorization, i.e., it will not protect a user from attacking others with the same role.
Mitigation
Architecture and Design

Ensure that access control checks are performed related to the business logic. These checks may be different than the access control checks that are applied to more generic resources such as files, connections, processes, memory, and database records. For example, a database may restrict access for medical records to a specific database user, but each record might only be intended to be accessible to the patient and the patient's doctor [REF-7].

Mitigation MIT-4.4
Architecture and Design

Strategy: Libraries or Frameworks

  • Use a vetted library or framework that does not allow this weakness to occur or provides constructs that make this weakness easier to avoid.
  • For example, consider using authorization frameworks such as the JAAS Authorization Framework [REF-233] and the OWASP ESAPI Access Control feature [REF-45].
Mitigation
Architecture and Design
  • For web applications, make sure that the access control mechanism is enforced correctly at the server side on every page. Users should not be able to access any unauthorized functionality or information by simply requesting direct access to that page.
  • One way to do this is to ensure that all pages containing sensitive information are not cached, and that all such pages restrict access to requests that are accompanied by an active and authenticated session token associated with a user who has the required permissions to access that page.
Mitigation
System Configuration Installation

Use the access control capabilities of your operating system and server environment and define your access control lists accordingly. Use a "default deny" policy when defining these ACLs.

CAPEC-665: Exploitation of Thunderbolt Protection Flaws

An adversary leverages a firmware weakness within the Thunderbolt protocol, on a computing device to manipulate Thunderbolt controller firmware in order to exploit vulnerabilities in the implementation of authorization and verification schemes within Thunderbolt protection mechanisms. Upon gaining physical access to a target device, the adversary conducts high-level firmware manipulation of the victim Thunderbolt controller SPI (Serial Peripheral Interface) flash, through the use of a SPI Programing device and an external Thunderbolt device, typically as the target device is booting up. If successful, this allows the adversary to modify memory, subvert authentication mechanisms, spoof identities and content, and extract data and memory from the target device. Currently 7 major vulnerabilities exist within Thunderbolt protocol with 9 attack vectors as noted in the Execution Flow.
