  "summary" : "Pterodactyl Panel has plain-text logging of user passwords when two-factor authentication is disabled",
  "details" : "### Impact\n\nWhen a user disables two-factor authentication via the Panel, a `DELETE` request with their current password in a query parameter will be sent.  While query parameters are encrypted when using TLS, many webservers (including ones officially documented for use with Pterodactyl) will log query parameters in plain-text, storing a user's password in plain text.\n\nIf a malicious user obtains access to these logs they could *potentially* authenticate against a user's account; assuming they are able to discover the account's email address or username **separately**.\n\n### Patches\n\nThis problem has been patched by <https://github.com/pterodactyl/panel/commit/8be2b892c3940bdc0157ccdab16685a72d105dd1> on the `1.0-develop` branch and released under `v1.11.8` as a single commit on top of `v1.11.7` <https://github.com/pterodactyl/panel/commit/75b59080e2812ced677dab516222b2a3bb34e3a4>\n\nPatch file: <https://github.com/pterodactyl/panel/commit/8be2b892c3940bdc0157ccdab16685a72d105dd1.patch>\n\n### Workarounds\n\nThere are no workarounds at this time.  There is not a direct vulnerability within the software as it relates to logs generated by intermediate components such as webservers or Layer 7 proxies.\n\nUpdating to `v1.11.8` or adding the linked patch manually are the only ways to avoid this problem.\n\n### User Notice\n\nAs this vulnerability relates to historical logging of sensitive data, users who have ever disabled 2FA on a Panel (self-hosted or operated by a company) should change their passwords and consider enabling 2FA if it was left disabled.  While it's unlikely that your account will be compromised by this vulnerability, it's not impossible.\n\nPanel administrators should consider clearing any access logs that may contain sensitive data, for Panels using NGINX, the access log is located at `/var/log/nginx/pterodactyl.app-access.log`.",
