Why It Matters

Analysis dossier

Why It Matters

Nginx UI is a web user interface for the Nginx web server. Prior to version 2.3.4, a user who was disabled by an administrator can use previously issued API tokens for up to the token lifetime. In practice, disabling a compromised account does not actually terminate that user’s access, so an attacker who already stole a JWT can continue reading and modifying protected resources after the account is marked disabled. Since tokens can be used to create new accounts, it is possible the disabled user to maintain the privilege. Version 2.3.4 patches the issue.

Matched authorization-bypass (CWE-863)

Exposure

  1. Locate affected authorization controls and verify deployed versions.Telemetry: Application inventory · The source must identify the affected control. · Rule authorization-bypass

Exploitation evidence

  1. Review privileged operations performed by unexpected users on affected deployments.Telemetry: Application audit logs · Authorization anomalies can support a targeted hunt. · Rule authorization-bypass

Response

  1. Confirm the vendor mitigation and recheck access decisions.Telemetry: Application audit logs · Access testing verifies the local fix. · Rule authorization-bypass
