GHSA-G3WJ-5278-JQ3M
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-08-18 12:31 – Updated: 2026-08-18 12:31A vulnerability was determined in karakeep-app karakeep up to 0.32.0. The impacted element is an unknown function of the file apps/web/server/auth.ts of the component OAuth Sign-In. This manipulation causes improper authentication. It is possible to initiate the attack remotely. The complexity of an attack is rather high. The exploitability is regarded as difficult. The exploit has been publicly disclosed and may be utilized. The project was informed of the problem early through an issue report but has not responded yet.

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-09-28 06:31 – Updated: 2026-09-28 12:31A vulnerability was identified in ООО НПО Ритм GEOritm up to 2.45.1. This affects an unknown part of the file /restapi/objects/obj-groups of the component REST API. Such manipulation of the argument objectId leads to missing authentication. The attack can be launched remotely. The exploit is publicly available and might be used. Upgrading to version 2.46 is able to mitigate this issue. It is advisable to upgrade the affected component. The vendor confirms: "In August 2026, NPO Ritm received an official vulnerability notification from the Russian Federal Service for Technical and Export Control (FSTEC Russia). The vulnerability was registered under identifier BDU:2026-11235. Following our internal investigation, we confirmed the vulnerability and implemented the necessary security fixes. The vulnerability has been fixed on our hosted GEO.RITM server at geo.ritm.ru. The fix has also been included in GEO.RITM version 2.46, which is already being distributed to our customers."

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2021-05-06 18:54 – Updated: 2021-05-05 19:06MAGMI versions prior to 0.7.24 are vulnerable to a remote authentication bypass due to allowing default credentials in the event there is a database connection failure. A remote attacker can trigger this connection failure if the Mysql setting max_connections (default 151) is lower than Apache (or another web server) setting MaxRequestWorkers (formerly MaxClients) (default 256). This can be done by sending at least 151 simultaneous requests to the Magento website to trigger a "Too many connections" error, then use default magmi:magmi basic authentication to remotely bypass authentication.

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2022-05-17 00:39 – Updated: 2022-05-17 00:39auth.php in openInvoice 0.90 beta and earlier allows remote attackers to bypass authentication and gain privileges by setting the oiauth cookie. NOTE: this can be leveraged with a separate vulnerability in resetpass.php to modify passwords for arbitrary users.

Mitigation
Strategy: Libraries or Frameworks
Use an authentication framework or library such as the OWASP ESAPI Authentication feature.
CAPEC-114: Authentication Abuse
An attacker obtains unauthorized access to an application, service or device either through knowledge of the inherent weaknesses of an authentication mechanism, or by exploiting a flaw in the authentication scheme's implementation. In such an attack an authentication mechanism is functioning but a carefully controlled sequence of events causes the mechanism to grant access to the attacker.
CAPEC-115: Authentication Bypass
An attacker gains access to application, service, or device with the privileges of an authorized or privileged user by evading or circumventing an authentication mechanism. The attacker is therefore able to access protected data without authentication ever having taken place.
CAPEC-151: Identity Spoofing
Identity Spoofing refers to the action of assuming (i.e., taking on) the identity of some other entity (human or non-human) and then using that identity to accomplish a goal. An adversary may craft messages that appear to come from a different principle or use stolen / spoofed authentication credentials.
CAPEC-194: Fake the Source of Data
An adversary takes advantage of improper authentication to provide data or services under a falsified identity. The purpose of using the falsified identity may be to prevent traceability of the provided data or to assume the rights granted to another individual. One of the simplest forms of this attack would be the creation of an email message with a modified "From" field in order to appear that the message was sent from someone other than the actual sender. The root of the attack (in this case the email system) fails to properly authenticate the source and this results in the reader incorrectly performing the instructed action. Results of the attack vary depending on the details of the attack, but common results include privilege escalation, obfuscation of other attacks, and data corruption/manipulation.
CAPEC-22: Exploiting Trust in Client
An attack of this type exploits vulnerabilities in client/server communication channel authentication and data integrity. It leverages the implicit trust a server places in the client, or more importantly, that which the server believes is the client. An attacker executes this type of attack by communicating directly with the server where the server believes it is communicating only with a valid client. There are numerous variations of this type of attack.
CAPEC-57: Utilizing REST's Trust in the System Resource to Obtain Sensitive Data
This attack utilizes a REST(REpresentational State Transfer)-style applications' trust in the system resources and environment to obtain sensitive data once SSL is terminated.
CAPEC-593: Session Hijacking
This type of attack involves an adversary that exploits weaknesses in an application's use of sessions in performing authentication. The adversary is able to steal or manipulate an active session and use it to gain unathorized access to the application.
CAPEC-633: Token Impersonation
An adversary exploits a weakness in authentication to create an access token (or equivalent) that impersonates a different entity, and then associates a process/thread to that that impersonated token. This action causes a downstream user to make a decision or take action that is based on the assumed identity, and not the response that blocks the adversary.
CAPEC-650: Upload a Web Shell to a Web Server
By exploiting insufficient permissions, it is possible to upload a web shell to a web server in such a way that it can be executed remotely. This shell can have various capabilities, thereby acting as a "gateway" to the underlying web server. The shell might execute at the higher permission level of the web server, providing the ability the execute malicious code at elevated levels.
CAPEC-94: Adversary in the Middle (AiTM)
An adversary targets the communication between two components (typically client and server), in order to alter or obtain data from transactions. A general approach entails the adversary placing themself within the communication channel between the two components.
