Impact
A semicolon path injection vulnerability was found on the /api;/config
endpoint. By appending a semicolon in the URL, attackers can bypass authentication and gain unauthorised access to sensitive configuration data. Furthermore, PUT
requests on the /api;/config
endpoint while setting the Content-Type: application/hocon
header allow unauthenticated attackers to file reading via HOCON file inclusion. This allows attackers to retrieve sensitive information such as configuration files from the server, which can be leveraged for further exploitation.
Patches
The vulnerability has been fixed in Scoold 1.64.0
Workarounds
A workaround would be to disable the Scoold API with scoold.api_enabled = false
