Summary
nebula-mesh's web UI lacks CSRF tokens on /ui/* mutating endpoints
Details

Every /ui/* POST / PUT / PATCH / DELETE route processes the request as soon as the session cookie validates. SameSite=Lax on the session cookie prevents most cross-site form submits but does not protect:

  • top-level form-submit navigations from third-party pages (some browsers still send Lax cookies on top-level POSTs)
  • same-registrable-domain attackers (sibling-subdomain XSS, subdomain takeover)
  • the GET /ui/logout route, which a third-party <img src=".../ui/logout"> can force-trigger

The admin UI signs CA certificates, mints API keys, rotates / retires / deletes CAs, disables operators, and changes server settings. CSRF here is a real privilege escalation, not just annoyance.

Affected

All released versions up to v0.3.2.

Suggested fix

Double-submit cookie: a 32-byte crypto/rand token in a non-HttpOnly _csrf cookie, echoed in either X-CSRF-Token (htmx) or a _csrf form field (HTML forms). Compared in constant time. Rotated on every privilege transition (Login, OIDC StartAuthenticatedSession, CompleteTwoFactor, Logout) so pre-auth fixation cannot survive promotion. Rejections audit-logged as ui.csrf.rejected with reason; response body stays opaque.

/ui/logout becomes POST so it is no longer reachable via <img> tags.

Fix coordinates with the Secure-cookie advisory disclosed concurrently — the _csrf cookie inherits the same Secure-attribute derivation.

Reproducer

With an authenticated operator session in browser tab A, open the following minimal HTML in any other tab:

<form action="https://nebula.example.com/ui/cas/{ca-id}/delete" method="POST">
  <button>Click for free puppy</button>
</form>

Click. The CA is deleted — the server processes the POST because the session cookie is automatically attached and there is no other check. The same trick works for force-rotate, retire, mint API keys, disable operators, etc.

Alternative force-logout: <img src="https://nebula.example.com/ui/logout"> placed on an attacker's page logs out any visiting authenticated operator. No interaction required.

Notes

  • Multipart and JSON endpoints don't exist in the current UI surface. Future additions must rely on the header path because r.PostFormValue only reads application/x-www-form-urlencoded bodies. The middleware's package comment documents this.
  • The patch assumes nebula-mgmt is the sole authority on its registrable domain. A compromised sibling subdomain can still set parent-domain cookies and forge matches; SameSite=Lax does not prevent that. Documented in the patch.

Summary
OpenStack Identity Keystone is vulnerable to Block delegation escalation of privilege
Details

OpenStack Identity (Keystone) before 2013.2.4, 2014.1 before 2014.1.2, and Juno before Juno-2 does not properly handle chained delegation, which allows remote authenticated users to gain privileges by leveraging a (1) trust or (2) OAuth token with impersonation enabled to create a new token with additional roles.

Summary
Keycloak Privilege Escalation Vulnerability in Admin Console (FGAPv2 Enabled)
Details

A Privilege Escalation vulnerability was identified in the Keycloak identity and access management solution, specifically when FGAPv2 is enabled in version 26.2.x. The flaw lies in the admin permission enforcement logic, where a user with manage-users privileges can self-assign realm-admin rights. The escalation occurs due to missing privilege boundary checks in role mapping operations via the admin REST interface. A malicious administrator with limited permissions can exploit this by editing their own user roles, gaining unauthorized full access to realm configuration and user data.

This issue has been fixed in versions 26.2.6, and 26.3.0.

GHSA-27V4-H6GJ-F3W5

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2022-05-13 01:14 – Updated: 2022-05-13 01:14
VLAI
Details

A vulnerability in the Cisco Nexus 9000 Series Fabric Switches running in Application-Centric Infrastructure (ACI) mode could allow an authenticated, local attacker to read arbitrary files on an affected device. The vulnerability is due to a lack of proper input and validation checking mechanisms of user-supplied input sent to an affected device. A successful exploit could allow the attacker unauthorized access to read arbitrary files on an affected device. This vulnerability has been fixed in version 14.0(1h).

Mitigation MIT-1
Architecture and Design Operation

Very carefully manage the setting, management, and handling of privileges. Explicitly manage trust zones in the software.

Mitigation MIT-48
Architecture and Design

Strategy: Separation of Privilege

Follow the principle of least privilege when assigning access rights to entities in a software system.

Mitigation MIT-49
Architecture and Design

Strategy: Separation of Privilege

Consider following the principle of separation of privilege. Require multiple conditions to be met before permitting access to a system resource.

CAPEC-122: Privilege Abuse

An adversary is able to exploit features of the target that should be reserved for privileged users or administrators but are exposed to use by lower or non-privileged accounts. Access to sensitive information and functionality must be controlled to ensure that only authorized users are able to access these resources.

CAPEC-233: Privilege Escalation

An adversary exploits a weakness enabling them to elevate their privilege and perform an action that they are not supposed to be authorized to perform.

CAPEC-58: Restful Privilege Elevation

An adversary identifies a Rest HTTP (Get, Put, Delete) style permission method allowing them to perform various malicious actions upon server data due to lack of access control mechanisms implemented within the application service accepting HTTP messages.
