Descriptions

Home assistant is an open source home automation. Home Assistant server does not set any HTTP security headers, including the X-Frame-Options header, which specifies whether the web page is allowed to be framed. The omission of this and correlating headers facilitates covert clickjacking attacks and alternative exploit opportunities, such as the vector described in this security advisory. This fault incurs major risk, considering the ability to trick users into installing an external and malicious add-on with minimal user interaction, which would enable Remote Code Execution (RCE) within the Home Assistant application. This issue has been addressed in version 2023.9.0 and all users are advised to upgrade. There are no known workarounds for this vulnerability.

Home Assistant es una domótica de código abierto. El servidor Home Assistant no establece ningún encabezado de seguridad HTTP, incluido el encabezado X-Frame-Options, que especifica si se permite que la página web este enmarcada. La omisión de este y los encabezados correlacionados facilita los ataques encubiertos de clickjacking y oportunidades de explotación alternativas, como el vector descrito en este aviso de seguridad. Esta falla conlleva un riesgo importante, considerando la capacidad de engañar a los usuarios para que instalen un complemento externo y malicioso con una interacción mínima del usuario, lo que permitiría Remote Code Execution (RCE) dentro de la aplicación Home Assistant. Este problema se solucionó en la versión 2023.9.0 y se recomienda a todos los usuarios que actualicen. No se conocen workarounds para esta vulnerabilidad.
