CVE-2018-1000628
Battelle V2I Hub 2.5.1 could allow a remote attacker to bypass security restrictions, caused by the direct checking of the API key against a user-supplied value in PHP's GET global variable array using PHP's strcmp() function.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (2.85%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
Description
Battelle V2I Hub 2.5.1 could allow a remote attacker to bypass security restrictions, caused by the direct checking of the API key against a user-supplied value in PHP's GET global variable array using PHP's strcmp() function. By adding "[]" to the end of "key" in the URL when accessing API functions, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to execute API functions.
