CVE-2023-44794Public exploitNetwork attack vector

Authenticated route access via path normalization mismatch

Published Oct 25, 2023 · Updated Sep 12, 2024

Authentication bypass in Dromara Sa-Token 1.36.0 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to reach protected Spring routes. SaRequestForServlet supplies Sa-Token with a normalized servlet path while Spring routes the raw path, so /admin/.. evades an /admin/** permission check but still reaches the endpoint. Exploitation requires Spring Boot 2.3.1 or later or Spring 5.3.0 or later and a valid low-privilege session, granting access to application-defined protected functionality.
