Defective request context handling in Self Service in LinOTP 3.x before 3.2.5 allows remote unauthenticated attackers to escalate privileges, thereby allowing them to act as and with the permissions of another user.

MEDIUM 6.8EPSS 0.61%

Does this matter?

Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.61%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.

Description

Defective request context handling in Self Service in LinOTP 3.x before 3.2.5 allows remote unauthenticated attackers to escalate privileges, thereby allowing them to act as and with the permissions of another user. Attackers must generate repeated API requests to trigger a race condition with concurrent user activity in the self-service portal.
