Nextcloud Talk is a fully on-premises audio/video and chat communication service. Password protected shared chats in Talk before version 9.0.10, 10.0.8 and 11.2.2 did not rotate the session cookie after a successful authentication event. It is recommended that the Nextcloud Talk App is upgraded to 9.0.10, 10.0.8 or 11.2.2. No workarounds for this vulnerability are known to exist.
Authenticating a user, or otherwise establishing a new user session, without invalidating any existing session identifier gives an attacker the opportunity to steal authenticated sessions.
| Name | Vendor | Start Version | End Version |
|---|---|---|---|
| Talk | Nextcloud | * | 9.0.10 (excluding) |
| Talk | Nextcloud | 10.0.0 (including) | 10.0.8 (excluding) |
| Talk | Nextcloud | 11.2.0 (including) | 11.2.2 (excluding) |
Such a scenario is commonly observed when:
In the generic exploit of session fixation vulnerabilities, an attacker creates a new session on a web application and records the associated session identifier. The attacker then causes the victim to associate, and possibly authenticate, against the server using that session identifier, giving the attacker access to the user’s account through the active session.
