CVE-2024-57154

9.8 CRITICAL

📋 TL;DR

This vulnerability allows unauthenticated attackers to bypass authentication in dts-shop v0.0.1-SNAPSHOT by sending a crafted payload to the /admin/auth/index endpoint. Attackers can gain administrative access without valid credentials. Only users running this specific version of dts-shop are affected.

💻 Affected Systems

Products:
  • dts-shop
Versions: v0.0.1-SNAPSHOT
Operating Systems: All operating systems running dts-shop
Default Config Vulnerable: ⚠️ Yes
Notes: Only the specific snapshot version v0.0.1-SNAPSHOT is confirmed vulnerable. Other versions may also be affected but not confirmed.

⚠️ Manual Verification Required

This CVE does not have specific version information in our database, so automatic vulnerability detection cannot determine if your system is affected.

Why? The CVE database entry doesn't specify which versions are vulnerable (no version ranges provided by the vendor/NVD).

  2. Check vendor security advisories for your specific version
  3. Test if the vulnerability is exploitable in your environment
  4. Consider updating to the latest version as a precaution

⚠️ Risk & Real-World Impact

🔴

Worst Case

Complete compromise of the dts-shop application allowing attackers to access, modify, or delete all data, install backdoors, and potentially pivot to other systems.

🟠

Likely Case

Unauthorized administrative access leading to data theft, configuration changes, and potential e-commerce fraud.

🟢

If Mitigated

No impact if proper authentication controls are implemented and the vulnerability is patched.

🌐 Internet-Facing: HIGH - The vulnerability is remotely exploitable without authentication and affects web applications typically exposed to the internet.
🏢 Internal Only: MEDIUM - While still serious, internal-only deployments have reduced attack surface compared to internet-facing systems.

🎯 Exploit Status

Public PoC: ⚠️ Yes
Weaponized: LIKELY
Unauthenticated Exploit: ⚠️ Yes
Complexity: LOW

The GitHub issue shows exploitation details and the vulnerability is trivial to exploit with basic HTTP requests.

🛠️ Fix & Mitigation

✅ Official Fix

Patch Version: Unknown

Vendor Advisory: https://github.com/qiguliuxing/dts-shop/issues/29

Restart Required: Yes

Instructions:

1. Monitor the GitHub repository for updates. 2. Apply any available patches. 3. Restart the dts-shop application. 4. Verify authentication controls are working properly.

🔧 Temporary Workarounds

Web Application Firewall Rule

all

Block or monitor requests to /admin/auth/index endpoint

WAF specific - configure rule to block suspicious requests to /admin/auth/index

Network Access Control

linux

Restrict access to admin endpoints to trusted IP addresses only

iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport [PORT] -s [TRUSTED_IP] -j ACCEPT
iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport [PORT] -j DROP

🧯 If You Can't Patch

  • Implement strong network segmentation to isolate the vulnerable system
  • Deploy additional authentication layers (2FA, IP whitelisting) for admin access

🔍 How to Verify

Check if Vulnerable:

Send a crafted HTTP request to /admin/auth/index and check if authentication is bypassed. Monitor application logs for unauthorized access attempts.

Check Version:

Check application configuration files or deployment manifests for version information

Verify Fix Applied:

Test authentication bypass attempts after applying controls. Verify proper authentication is required for all admin endpoints.

📡 Detection & Monitoring

Log Indicators:

  • Unauthorized access to /admin/auth/index
  • Multiple failed login attempts followed by successful admin access
  • Admin actions from unexpected IP addresses

Network Indicators:

  • HTTP requests to /admin/auth/index with unusual payloads
  • Admin panel access without preceding login requests

SIEM Query:

source="web_logs" AND (uri="/admin/auth/index" AND status=200) AND NOT (user="authenticated_user")
