GHSA-M983-7426-5HRJ
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-03-24 22:25 – Updated: 2026-03-30 20:27Summary
A public access-control flaw allows unauthenticated users to retrieve the full user list from GET /api/allusers. This exposes user profile metadata to anyone who can reach the application and enables remote user enumeration.
Details
The vulnerable route is registered as a public endpoint:
internal/router/user.go:17appRouterGroup.PublicRouterGroup.GET("/allusers", h.UserHandler.GetAllUsers())
However, the handler appears to have been intended as an authenticated endpoint:
internal/handler/user/user.go:177-185- API annotations indicate an authentication requirement via
@Security ApiKeyAuth
This creates a mismatch between the documented security model and the actual routing configuration. As a result, requests to GET /api/allusers succeed without authentication and return user records, including profile metadata such as usernames, email addresses, role-related flags, avatar values, and locale information.
A negative control against another endpoint that correctly requires authentication further supports that this exposure is unintended: GET /api/user returns 401 Unauthorized when no token is supplied, while GET /api/allusers remains publicly accessible.
Impact
- Type: Access control bypass / unauthenticated data exposure
- Who is impacted: Any deployment exposing the API to untrusted networks, and all users whose profile metadata is returned by the endpoint
- Security impact: Enables remote user enumeration and disclosure of user profile metadata, which may facilitate account reconnaissance, phishing, and targeted credential attacks
- Attack preconditions: None beyond network access to the affected API endpoint

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.
CAPEC-665: Exploitation of Thunderbolt Protection Flaws
An adversary leverages a firmware weakness within the Thunderbolt protocol, on a computing device to manipulate Thunderbolt controller firmware in order to exploit vulnerabilities in the implementation of authorization and verification schemes within Thunderbolt protection mechanisms. Upon gaining physical access to a target device, the adversary conducts high-level firmware manipulation of the victim Thunderbolt controller SPI (Serial Peripheral Interface) flash, through the use of a SPI Programing device and an external Thunderbolt device, typically as the target device is booting up. If successful, this allows the adversary to modify memory, subvert authentication mechanisms, spoof identities and content, and extract data and memory from the target device. Currently 7 major vulnerabilities exist within Thunderbolt protocol with 9 attack vectors as noted in the Execution Flow.
