How the Exploit Works
The vulnerability stems from a lack of proper access control list (ACL) constraints in Unlimited Timeline. An attacker can exploit this by sending specially crafted requests to access functionalities that should be restricted. This could allow unauthorized access to sensitive data or even full system control, depending on the data and functionalities exposed.
Conceptual Example Code
Here’s a conceptual example of how the vulnerability might be exploited using an HTTP request:
POST /unprotected_functionality HTTP/1.1
Host: target.example.com
Content-Type: application/json
{ "malicious_payload": "..." }
In this example, the attacker sends a POST request to a functionality that should be protected by ACLs. The “malicious_payload” could be designed to retrieve sensitive data or execute unauthorized commands.
Mitigation Guidance
Users of NotFound Unlimited Timeline are advised to apply the vendor’s patch as soon as it is available. In the meantime, or if a patch is not feasible, using a web application firewall (WAF) or intrusion detection system (IDS) could provide temporary mitigation. However, this would not completely eliminate the risk and is only a temporary solution until the patch can be applied.
