CVE-2024-12766 Vulnerability Summary

CVE-2024-12766: parisneo/lollms-webui version V13 (feather) suffers from a Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) vulnerability in the `POST /api/proxy` REST API. Attackers can exploit this vulnerability to abuse the victim server's credentials to access unauthorized web resources by specifying the JSON parameter `{"url":"http://steal.target"}`. Existing security mechanisms such as `forbid_remote_access(lollmsElfServer)`, `lollmsElfServer.config.headless_server_mode`, and `check_access(lollmsElfServer, request.client_id)` do not protect against this vulnerability.

Assessing the Risk of CVE-2024-12766

Access Complexity Graph

The exploitability of CVE-2024-12766 depends on two key factors: attack complexity (the level of effort required to execute an exploit) and privileges required (the access level an attacker needs).

Exploitability Analysis for CVE-2024-12766

With low attack complexity and no required privileges, CVE-2024-12766 is an easy target for cybercriminals. Organizations should prioritize immediate mitigation measures to prevent unauthorized access and data breaches.

Understanding AC and PR

A lower complexity and fewer privilege requirements make exploitation easier. Security teams should evaluate these aspects to determine the urgency of mitigation strategies, such as patch management and access control policies.

Attack Complexity (AC) measures the difficulty in executing an exploit. A high AC means that specific conditions must be met, making an attack more challenging, while a low AC means the vulnerability can be exploited with minimal effort.

Privileges Required (PR) determine the level of system access necessary for an attack. Vulnerabilities requiring no privileges are more accessible to attackers, whereas high privilege requirements limit exploitation to authorized users with elevated access.

CVSS Score Breakdown Chart

Above is the CVSS Sub-score Breakdown for CVE-2024-12766, illustrating how Base, Impact, and Exploitability factors combine to form the overall severity rating. A higher sub-score typically indicates a more severe or easier-to-exploit vulnerability.

CIA Impact Analysis

Below is the Impact Analysis for CVE-2024-12766, showing how Confidentiality, Integrity, and Availability might be affected if the vulnerability is exploited. Higher values usually signal greater potential damage.

  • Confidentiality: High
    Exploiting CVE-2024-12766 can result in unauthorized access to sensitive data, severely compromising data privacy.
  • Integrity: None
    CVE-2024-12766 poses no threat to data integrity.
  • Availability: None
    CVE-2024-12766 does not impact system availability.

CWE Common Weakness Enumeration

CWE-918

CAPEC Common Attack Pattern Enumeration and Classification

  • Server Side Request Forgery CAPEC-664 An adversary exploits improper input validation by submitting maliciously crafted input to a target application running on a server, with the goal of forcing the server to make a request either to itself, to web services running in the server’s internal network, or to external third parties. If successful, the adversary’s request will be made with the server’s privilege level, bypassing its authentication controls. This ultimately allows the adversary to access sensitive data, execute commands on the server’s network, and make external requests with the stolen identity of the server. Server Side Request Forgery attacks differ from Cross Site Request Forgery attacks in that they target the server itself, whereas CSRF attacks exploit an insecure user authentication mechanism to perform unauthorized actions on the user's behalf.
