Title
pwn.college DOJO vulnerable to improper authentication in workspace endpoint allowing unauthorized Windows VM access
Summary
pwn.college DOJO is an education platform for learning cybersecurity. Prior to commit 467db0b9ea0d9a929dc89b41f6eb59f7cfc68bef, the /workspace endpoint contains an improper authentication vulnerability that allows an attacker to access any active Windows VM without proper authorization. The vulnerability occurs in the view_desktop function where the user is retrieved via a URL parameter without verifying that the requester has administrative privileges. An attacker can supply any user ID and arbitrary password in the request parameters to impersonate another user. When requesting a Windows desktop service, the function does not validate the supplied password before generating access credentials, allowing the attacker to obtain an iframe source URL that grants full access to the target user's Windows VM. This impacts all users with active Windows VMs, as an attacker can access and modify data on the Windows machine and in the home directory of the associated Linux machine via the Z: drive. This issue has been patched in commit 467db0b9ea0d9a929dc89b41f6eb59f7cfc68bef. No known workarounds exist.

Antes del commit 467db0b9ea0d9a929dc89b41f6eb59f7cfc68bef, el endpoint /workspace contiene una vulnerabilidad de autenticaci\u00f3n impropia que permite a un atacante acceder a cualquier VM de Windows activa sin la autorizaci\u00f3n adecuada. La vulnerabilidad ocurre en la funci\u00f3n view_desktop donde el usuario se recupera a trav\u00e9s de un par\u00e1metro de URL sin verificar que el solicitante tenga privilegios administrativos. Un atacante puede proporcionar cualquier ID de usuario y contrase\u00f1a arbitraria en los par\u00e1metros de la solicitud para suplantar a otro usuario. Al solicitar un servicio de escritorio de Windows, la funci\u00f3n no valida la contrase\u00f1a proporcionada antes de generar credenciales de acceso, permitiendo al atacante obtener una URL de origen de iframe que otorga acceso completo a la VM de Windows del usuario objetivo. Esto afecta a todos los usuarios con VMs de Windows activas, ya que un atacante puede acceder y modificar datos en la m\u00e1quina Windows y en el directorio de inicio de la m\u00e1quina Linux asociada a trav\u00e9s de la unidad Z:.

Prior to commit 467db0b9ea0d9a929dc89b41f6eb59f7cfc68bef, the /workspace endpoint contains an improper authentication vulnerability that allows an attacker to access any active Windows VM without proper authorization. The vulnerability occurs in the view_desktop function where the user is retrieved via a URL parameter without verifying that the requester has administrative privileges. An attacker can supply any user ID and arbitrary password in the request parameters to impersonate another user. When requesting a Windows desktop service, the function does not validate the supplied password before generating access credentials, allowing the attacker to obtain an iframe source URL that grants full access to the target user\u0027s Windows VM. This impacts all users with active Windows VMs, as an attacker can access and modify data on the Windows machine and in the home directory of the associated Linux machine via the Z: drive. This issue has been patched in commit 467db0b9ea0d9a929dc89b41f6eb59f7cfc68bef. No known workarounds exist."
