Unauthenticated Web UI access via predictable JWT secret
Published Nov 7, 2022 · Updated May 1, 2025
Authentication bypass in Object First Ootbi BETA 1.0.7.712 allows remote attackers to access the Web UI via forged JWT tokens. The authorization service signs tokens with a secret generated by a cryptographically weak pseudo-random function, allowing prediction and token forgery. No credentials or user interaction are required, and successful forgery grants Web UI access with the confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact recorded by CVSS.
