GHSA-8M9V-XPGF-G99M
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-03-02 21:54 – Updated: 2026-03-02 21:54Summary
Unauthorized senders could trigger two command paths without sender authorization checks:
1. stop-like natural-language abort triggers
2. /models command output
Impact
An unauthorized sender could disrupt active sessions and view model/auth metadata that should be authorization-gated.
Fix
Sender authorization is now enforced for stop-like abort triggers and /models listings.

GHSA-8MJR-JR5H-Q2XR
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2022-07-15 18:17 – Updated: 2024-11-22 18:11Impact
This vulnerability affects all accounts (vanilla and ethereum flavors) in the v0.2.0 release of OpenZeppelin Contracts for Cairo, which are not whitelisted on StarkNet mainnet, so only goerli deployments of v0.2.0 accounts are affected.
This faulty behavior is not observed in StarkNet's testing framework, so don't rely on it passing to detect this issue on custom accounts.
Patches
This bug has been patched in v0.2.1.
References
The issue is detailed in https://github.com/OpenZeppelin/cairo-contracts/issues/386.

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2022-05-24 17:43 – Updated: 2022-10-25 19:00An improper access control vulnerability was identified in the GitHub Enterprise Server GraphQL API that allowed authenticated users of the instance to modify the maintainer collaboration permission of a pull request without proper authorization. By exploiting this vulnerability, an attacker would be able to gain access to head branches of pull requests opened on repositories of which they are a maintainer. Forking is disabled by default for organization owned private repositories and would prevent this vulnerability. Additionally, branch protections such as required pull request reviews or status checks would prevent unauthorized commits from being merged without further review or validation. This vulnerability affected all versions of GitHub Enterprise Server since 2.12.22 and was fixed in versions 2.20.24, 2.21.15, 2.22.7 and 3.0.1. This vulnerability was reported via the GitHub Bug Bounty program.

}
Mitigation
- Divide the product into anonymous, normal, privileged, and administrative areas. Reduce the attack surface by carefully mapping roles with data and functionality. Use role-based access control (RBAC) [REF-229] to enforce the roles at the appropriate boundaries.
- Note that this approach may not protect against horizontal authorization, i.e., it will not protect a user from attacking others with the same role.
Mitigation
Ensure that access control checks are performed related to the business logic. These checks may be different than the access control checks that are applied to more generic resources such as files, connections, processes, memory, and database records. For example, a database may restrict access for medical records to a specific database user, but each record might only be intended to be accessible to the patient and the patient's doctor [REF-7].
Mitigation MIT-4.4
Strategy: Libraries or Frameworks
- Use a vetted library or framework that does not allow this weakness to occur or provides constructs that make this weakness easier to avoid.
- For example, consider using authorization frameworks such as the JAAS Authorization Framework [REF-233] and the OWASP ESAPI Access Control feature [REF-45].
Mitigation
- For web applications, make sure that the access control mechanism is enforced correctly at the server side on every page. Users should not be able to access any unauthorized functionality or information by simply requesting direct access to that page.
- One way to do this is to ensure that all pages containing sensitive information are not cached, and that all such pages restrict access to requests that are accompanied by an active and authenticated session token associated with a user who has the required permissions to access that page.
Mitigation
Use the access control capabilities of your operating system and server environment and define your access control lists accordingly. Use a "default deny" policy when defining these ACLs.
No CAPEC attack patterns related to this CWE.
