An Insecure Direct Object Reference (IDOR) vulnerability was identified in the POST /v1/templates endpoint of the Lunary API, affecting versions up to 0.8.8. This vulnerability allows authenticated users to create templates in another users project by altering the projectId query parameter. The root cause of this issue is the absence of server-side validation to ensure that the authenticated user owns the specified projectId. The vulnerability has been addressed in version 1.9.23.

Weakness

The product does not restrict or incorrectly restricts access to a resource from an unauthorized actor.

Extended Description

Access control involves the use of several protection mechanisms such as:

When any mechanism is not applied or otherwise fails, attackers can compromise the security of the product by gaining privileges, reading sensitive information, executing commands, evading detection, etc. There are two distinct behaviors that can introduce access control weaknesses:

Potential Mitigations

  • Compartmentalize the system to have “safe” areas where trust boundaries can be unambiguously drawn. Do not allow sensitive data to go outside of the trust boundary and always be careful when interfacing with a compartment outside of the safe area.
  • Ensure that appropriate compartmentalization is built into the system design, and the compartmentalization allows for and reinforces privilege separation functionality. Architects and designers should rely on the principle of least privilege to decide the appropriate time to use privileges and the time to drop privileges.
