CVE-2023-22894

MEDIUM
4.9 CISA KEVNVD

Summary

generated automatically from NVD data

Strapi through 4.5.5 has a flaw in its query filter that lets attackers with admin panel access filter users by sensitive columns and infer values from API responses. With super admin access, this can expose the password hash and password reset token of all users; with lower-level admin access to API user fields, it can expose sensitive information for all API users but not other admin accounts. It carries a CVSS v3.1 score of 4.9 (MEDIUM) and is listed in the CISA KEV catalog, indicating active exploitation.

NVD description

Strapi through 4.5.5 allows attackers (with access to the admin panel) to discover sensitive user details by exploiting the query filter. The attacker can filter users by columns that contain sensitive information and infer a value from API responses. If the attacker has super admin access, then this can be exploited to discover the password hash and password reset token of all users. If the attacker has admin panel access to an account with permission to access the username and email of API users with a lower privileged role (e.g., Editor or Author), then this can be exploited to discover sensitive information for all API users but not other admin accounts.
