DevGuard: Unauthenticated identity assertion via `X-Admin-Token` header

Collected exploitation and prediction evidence

CISA KEV is observed exploitation evidence. FIRST EPSS is a dated prediction of exploitation in the next 30 days. Missing scores are unknown. This collector requests predictions only for explicit CVE aliases in the public NuGet archive; Microsoft release views retain their existing prediction scope.

No collected risk observation for these identifiers. This does not establish absence of exploitation or a zero probability.

Published

DevGuard provides vulnerability management for the full software supply chain. Prior to 1.2.2, the SessionMiddleware accepts a client-supplied X-Admin-Token HTTP request header and uses its raw string value as the authenticated userID when no Kratos session cookie is present. An unauthenticated attacker who knows or can guess a target user's Kratos identity UUID can issue requests as that user. Where the target user is an organisation admin or owner, this gives the attacker full control over that organisation's DevGuard resources. This vulnerability is fixed in 1.2.2.

### Impact The `SessionMiddleware` accepts a client-supplied `X-Admin-Token` HTTP request header and uses its raw string value as the authenticated `userID` when no Kratos session cookie is present. An unauthenticated attacker who knows or can guess a target user's Kratos identity UUID can issue requests as that user. Where the target user is an organisation `admin` or `owner`, this gives the attacker full control over that organisation's DevGuard resources. ### Patches The release v1.2.2 patches this issue. Update your DevGuard API Instances to this version. ### Workarounds Configure a reverse proxy to strip the `X-Admin-Token` header before sending requests to the DevGuard API. ### Resources Fixed commit: https://github.com/l3montree-dev/devguard/commit/6f38310bf93b2a63df3055038f4da82b1f4e6d9a
