Summary
Avo: Broken Access Control Through Unauthorized Execution of Arbitrary Action Classes Across Resources
Details

Summary

A critical Broken Access Control vulnerability was identified in the ActionsController of the Avo framework (v3.x). Due to insecure action lookup logic, an authenticated user can execute any Action class (descendants of Avo::BaseAction) on any resource, even if the action is not registered for that specific resource. This leads to Privilege Escalation and unauthorized data manipulation across the entire application.

Details

The vulnerability exists in the action_class method within app/controllers/avo/actions_controller.rb.

Vulnerable Code

def action_class
  # It searches through ALL descendants of BaseAction without resource validation
  Avo::BaseAction.descendants.find do |action|
    action.to_s == params[:action_id]
  end
end

The controller identifies the action class to execute solely based on the params[:action_id] by searching through all BaseAction descendants. It fails to verify whether the requested action is actually permitted or registered for the resource context specified in the request URL (e.g., /admin/resources/posts/actions).

Consequently, an attacker can invoke sensitive actions (e.g., Avo::Actions::ToggleAdmin) through an unrelated resource endpoint (e.g., Post), bypassing the intended resource-action mapping.

Impact

This flaw results in significant security risks:

  • Privilege Escalation: An authenticated user with low privileges can execute administrative actions (like toggling admin roles) to escalate their own or others' permissions.
  • Unauthorized Operations: Actions designed for restricted resources can be triggered against any record ID in the database.
  • Data Integrity Compromise: Attackers can perform unauthorized destructive operations (e.g., Delete, Archive, or Update) on records they should not have access to.

Proof of Concept (PoC)

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Log in to the Avo admin panel with limited permissions.
  2. Identify a target record ID (e.g., User ID: 1) and a sensitive action class (e.g., Avo::Actions::ToggleAdmin).
  3. Send a POST request to a resource endpoint where the target action is not registered:
    • URL: POST /admin/resources/posts/actions
    • Payload: action_id=Avo::Actions::ToggleAdmin&fields[avo_resource_ids]=1
  4. The server executes the ToggleAdmin logic on User 1, even though the request was made through the posts resource context.

PoC Script Snippet:

# Simulating the unauthorized action execution
data = {
    'action_id': 'Avo::Actions::ToggleAdmin',
    'fields[avo_resource_ids]': '1', # Target Record ID
    'authenticity_token': csrf_token
}
response = session.post(f"{BASE_URL}/admin/resources/posts/actions", data=data)

Remediation

Restrict the action lookup to only those actions explicitly registered for the current resource context:

def action_class
  # Validate that the action is registered for the current resource
  @resource.get_actions.find do |action|
    action.to_s == params[:action_id]
  end
end

Mitigation
Architecture and Design

For each and every data access, ensure that the user has sufficient privilege to access the record that is being requested.

Mitigation
Architecture and Design Implementation

Make sure that the key that is used in the lookup of a specific user's record is not controllable externally by the user or that any tampering can be detected.

Mitigation
Architecture and Design

Use encryption in order to make it more difficult to guess other legitimate values of the key or associate a digital signature with the key so that the server can verify that there has been no tampering.

No CAPEC attack patterns related to this CWE.
