Tautulli versions 2.1.38 and below allows remote attackers to bypass intended access control in Plex Media Server because the X-Plex-Token is mishandled and can be retrieved from Tautulli. NOTE: Initially, this id was associated with Plex Media Server 1.18.2.2029-36236cc4c as the affected product and version. Further research indicated that Tautulli is the correct affected product.

Weakness

The product transmits or stores authentication credentials, but it uses an insecure method that is susceptible to unauthorized interception and/or retrieval.
