Descriptions

Directus is a real-time API and App dashboard for managing SQL database content. When reaching the /files page, a JWT is passed via GET request. Inclusion of session tokens in URLs poses a security risk as URLs are often logged in various places (e.g., web server logs, browser history). Attackers gaining access to these logs may hijack active user sessions, leading to unauthorized access to sensitive information or actions on behalf of the user. This issue has been addressed in version 10.10.0. Users are advised to upgrade. There are no known workarounds for this vulnerability.

Directus es una API y un panel de aplicaciones en tiempo real para administrar el contenido de la base de datos SQL. Al llegar a la página /files, se pasa un JWT mediante una solicitud GET. La inclusión de tokens de sesión en las URL plantea un riesgo de seguridad ya que las URL a menudo se registran en varios lugares (por ejemplo, registros del servidor web, historial del navegador). Los atacantes que obtienen acceso a estos registros pueden secuestrar sesiones de usuarios activos, lo que lleva a un acceso no autorizado a información confidencial o acciones en nombre del usuario. Este problema se solucionó en la versión 10.10.0. Se recomienda a los usuarios que actualicen. No se conocen workarounds para esta vulnerabilidad.
