Unauthenticated user deletion via unchecked identifier
Published Jul 5, 2024 · Updated Mar 13, 2025
Improper authorization in 14Finger 1.1 allows remote attackers to delete arbitrary user accounts through the administrative user API. The /api/admin/user endpoint accepts a user-controlled id parameter and performs deletion without strictly verifying the caller's identity or management permissions. No authentication or user interaction is required; a crafted network request can remove any selected account and disrupt access managed by the service.
