How to Fix CVE-2022-36110

To remediate this vulnerability, upgrade all affected Github.com/gravitl/netmaker dependencies to a patched release. Both direct and transitive dependencies should be checked, as frameworks or security libraries may pull in vulnerable versions transitively.

github.com/gravitl/netmaker fixed: 0.15.1 
Upgrade github.com/gravitl/netmaker to 0.15.1
Verify Direct and Transitive Dependencies

Run the following command in your project directory to verify that all resolved dependencies use the patched release: 

inspect dependencies for github.com/gravitl/netmaker

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your application is affected by CVE-2022-36110, inspect your project dependencies for Github.com/gravitl/netmaker:

inspect dependencies for github.com/gravitl/netmaker

Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of Github.com/gravitl/netmaker in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than 0.15.1), your application is affected.

Note: Verify declared build manifests and deployed runtime container environments.

Technical Details

Vulnerability Mechanism & Technical Analysis

This vulnerability is classified under CWE-1220: Insufficient Granularity of Access Control, where the product implements access controls via a policy or other feature with the intention to disable or restrict accesses (reads and/or writes) to assets in a system from untrusted agents. however, implemented access controls lack required granularity, which renders the control policy too broad because it allows accesses from unauthorized agents to the security-sensitive assets. In Github.com/gravitl/netmaker, software state validation or input boundaries are circumvented during processing. Review the official source advisory statement below for specific affected components, classes, and reproduction details.

Source Advisory Statement

### Impact Improper Authorization functions leads to non-privileged users running privileged API calls. If you have added users to your Netmaker platform who whould not have admin privileges, they could use their auth token to run admin-level functions via the API. In addition, differing response codes based on function calls allowed non-users to potentially brute force the determination of names of networks on the system. ### Patches This problem has been patched in v0.15.1. To apply: 1. docker-compose down 2. docker pull gravitl/netmaker:v0.15.1 3. docker-compose up -d ### For more information If you have any questions or comments about this advisory: Email us at [info@netmaker.io](mailto:info@netmaker.io) This vulnerability was brought to our attention by @tweidinger
