Valtimo backend libraries allows objects in the object-api to be accessed and modified by unauthorized users
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
showInDataMenuis 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.
