GHSA-XGJ6-M977-PGHJ

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-06-24 09:30 – Updated: 2026-06-24 09:30
VLAI
Details

The Welcome Software Publishing plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Arbitrary Options Update in all versions up to and including 0.0.31. This is due to a missing capability check in the nc_setOption() function, which is exposed via the nc.setOption XML-RPC method. The function authenticates the user via $wp_xmlrpc_server->login() (verifying credentials are valid) but does not perform any authorization check such as current_user_can('manage_options'). This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Subscriber-level access and above, to update arbitrary WordPress options via XML-RPC requests. This can be leveraged to change the default_role option to 'administrator' and then register a new administrator account, achieving full privilege escalation and site takeover.

GHSA-XGXP-F695-6VRP

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-03-19 19:27 – Updated: 2026-03-27 21:58
VLAI
Summary
In Soft Serve, an authenticated repo import can clone server-local private repositories
Details

Summary

An authorization flaw in repo import allows any authenticated SSH user to clone a server-local Git repository, including another user's private repo, into a new repository they control. This breaks the private-repository confidentiality boundary and should be treated as High severity.

Details

Repo import checks authorization only for the destination repository name, not for the source remote. The destination-side authorization comes from pkg/ssh/cmd/cmd.go:172, which calls pkg/backend/user.go:46. If the destination repo does not already exist, any authenticated user is granted ReadWriteAccess at pkg/backend/user.go:94.

The import command then passes the user-controlled REMOTE into pkg/backend/repo.go:102. In vulnerable HEAD, git.Clone(remote, rp, copts) is reached without validating that remote is actually a network remote. As a result, a user can supply a server filesystem path such as $DATA_PATH/repos/secret.git and cause the server to clone its own local bare repository into a new repo owned by the attacker.

The relevant vulnerable flow is: - pkg/ssh/cmd/import.go - pkg/ssh/cmd/cmd.go:172 - pkg/backend/user.go:94 - pkg/backend/repo.go:102

PoC

Configuration: - Default local test configuration is sufficient. - SSH must be enabled. - At least two users are needed: one owner/admin and one low-privilege authenticated user.

Reproduction steps: 1. Start Soft Serve. 2. As an admin, create a private repo:

soft repo create secret -p
  1. Create a second low-privilege user:
soft user create user1 --key "$USER1_AUTHORIZED_KEY"
  1. Seed the private repo with secret content:
git clone ssh://localhost:$SSH_PORT/secret secret
echo 'top secret' > secret/SECRET.txt
git -C secret add SECRET.txt
git -C secret commit -m 'first'
git -C secret push origin HEAD
  1. Confirm the low-privilege user cannot access the private repo directly:
usoft repo info secret

Expected result:

Error: repository not found
  1. As the low-privilege user, import the server-local bare repo path into a new repo:
usoft repo import stolen "$DATA_PATH/repos/secret.git" --lfs-endpoint http://example.com
  1. Clone the attacker-controlled imported repo and read the secret:
ugit clone ssh://localhost:$SSH_PORT/stolen stolen-clone
cat stolen-clone/SECRET.txt

Expected result:

top secret

Notes: - The --lfs-endpoint value is needed to avoid later LFS endpoint handling rejecting the local-path import.

Impact

This is an authorization bypass and confidentiality issue.

Any authenticated SSH user on a multi-user Soft Serve instance can duplicate server-local Git repositories into new repositories they own, even when they are not a collaborator and direct access to the original private repo is denied. The primary impact is unauthorized disclosure of private source code and any secrets committed to those repositories.

Impacted parties: - Operators hosting Soft Serve for multiple users or teams - Owners of private repositories on the same instance - Any deployment where untrusted authenticated users can use repo import

Practical impact: - Theft of private source code - Disclosure of secrets committed to private repos - Exposure of unreleased or internal projects - Possible follow-on supply-chain risk if stolen code contains credentials or release material

  "details": "### Summary\nAn authorization flaw in `repo import` allows any authenticated SSH user to clone a server-local Git repository, including another user\u0027s private repo, into a new repository they control. This breaks the private-repository confidentiality boundary and should be treated as High severity.\n\n### Details\nRepo import checks authorization only for the destination repository name, not for the source remote. The destination-side authorization comes from [`pkg/ssh/cmd/cmd.go:172`](https://github.com/charmbracelet/soft-serve/blob/main/pkg/ssh/cmd/cmd.go#L172), which calls [`pkg/backend/user.go:46`](https://github.com/charmbracelet/soft-serve/blob/main/pkg/backend/user.go#L46). If the destination repo does not already exist, any authenticated user is granted `ReadWriteAccess` at [`pkg/backend/user.go:94`](https://github.com/charmbracelet/soft-serve/blob/main/pkg/backend/user.go#L94).\n\nThe import command then passes the user-controlled `REMOTE` into [`pkg/backend/repo.go:102`](https://github.com/charmbracelet/soft-serve/blob/main/pkg/backend/repo.go#L102). In vulnerable `HEAD`, `git.Clone(remote, rp, copts)` is reached without validating that `remote` is actually a network remote. As a result, a user can supply a server filesystem path such as `$DATA_PATH/repos/secret.git` and cause the server to clone its own local bare repository into a new repo owned by the attacker.\n\nThe relevant vulnerable flow is:\n- [`pkg/ssh/cmd/import.go`](https://github.com/charmbracelet/soft-serve/blob/main/pkg/ssh/cmd/import.go)\n- [`pkg/ssh/cmd/cmd.go:172`](https://github.com/charmbracelet/soft-serve/blob/main/pkg/ssh/cmd/cmd.go#L172)\n- [`pkg/backend/user.go:94`](https://github.com/charmbracelet/soft-serve/blob/main/pkg/backend/user.go#L94)\n- [`pkg/backend/repo.go:102`](https://github.com/charmbracelet/soft-serve/blob/main/pkg/backend/repo.go#L102)\n\n### PoC\nConfiguration:\n- Default local test configuration is sufficient.\n- SSH must be enabled.\n- At least two users are needed: one owner/admin and one low-privilege authenticated user.\n\nReproduction steps:\n1. Start Soft Serve.\n2. As an admin, create a private repo:\n\n```sh\nsoft repo create secret -p\n```\n\n3. Create a second low-privilege user:\n\n```sh\nsoft user create user1 --key \"$USER1_AUTHORIZED_KEY\"\n```\n\n4. Seed the private repo with secret content:\n\n```sh\ngit clone ssh://localhost:$SSH_PORT/secret secret\necho \u0027top secret\u0027 \u003e secret/SECRET.txt\ngit -C secret add SECRET.txt\ngit -C secret commit -m \u0027first\u0027\ngit -C secret push origin HEAD\n```\n\n5. Confirm the low-privilege user cannot access the private repo directly:\n\n```sh\nusoft repo info secret\n```\n\nExpected result:\n\n```text\nError: repository not found\n```\n\n6. As the low-privilege user, import the server-local bare repo path into a new repo:\n\n```sh\nusoft repo import stolen \"$DATA_PATH/repos/secret.git\" --lfs-endpoint http://example.com\n```\n\n7. Clone the attacker-controlled imported repo and read the secret:\n\n```sh\nugit clone ssh://localhost:$SSH_PORT/stolen stolen-clone\ncat stolen-clone/SECRET.txt\n```\n\nExpected result:\n\n```text\ntop secret\n```\n\nNotes:\n- The `--lfs-endpoint` value is needed to avoid later LFS endpoint handling rejecting the local-path import.\n\n### Impact\nThis is an authorization bypass and confidentiality issue.\n\nAny authenticated SSH user on a multi-user Soft Serve instance can duplicate server-local Git repositories into new repositories they own, even when they are not a collaborator and direct access to the original private repo is denied.

Mitigation
Architecture and Design
  • 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
Architecture and Design

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
Architecture and Design

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
Architecture and Design
  • 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
System Configuration Installation

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.
