Description

Impact

All objects for which an object-management configuration exists can be listed, viewed, edited, created or deleted by unauthorised users.

If object-urls are exposed via other channels, the contents of these objects can be viewed independent of object-management configurations.

Attack requirements

The following conditions have to be met in order to perform this attack:

  • A user must be logged in
    • No relevant application roles are required
  • At least one object-type must be configured via object-management
    • The scope of the attack is limited to objects that are configured via object-management.
    • The value of showInDataMenu is irrelevant for this attack

Patches

This issue was patched in version 12.13.0.RELEASE.

Workarounds

It is possible to override the endpoint security as defined in ObjectenApiHttpSecurityConfigurer and ObjectManagementHttpSecurityConfigurer. Depending on the implementation, this could result in loss of functionality.

CVSS v3 base metrics

Attack vector: More severe the more the remote (logically and physically) an attacker can be in order to exploit the vulnerability.
Attack complexity: More severe for the least complex attacks.
Privileges required: More severe if no privileges are required.
User interaction: More severe when no user interaction is required.
Scope: More severe when a scope change occurs, e.g. one vulnerable component impacts resources in components beyond its security scope.
Confidentiality: More severe when loss of data confidentiality is highest, measuring the level of data access available to an unauthorized user.
Integrity: More severe when loss of data integrity is the highest, measuring the consequence of data modification possible by an unauthorized user.
Availability: More severe when the loss of impacted component availability is highest.
