Cross-user data disclosure via shared server cache
Published May 30, 2023 · Updated Jan 10, 2025
Information disclosure in Mubarak Almehairbi ToUI 2.0.1 through 2.4.0 allows remote attackers to read other users' variables. Website.user_vars stores per-user values in Flask-Caching SimpleCache on the server without isolating cache entries by user, so values cross user contexts. The condition is remotely reachable without authentication only in applications using Website.user_vars, exposing and permitting changes to another user's values.
