Vulnerability Mechanism & Technical Analysis

This vulnerability is classified under CWE-942: Permissive Cross-domain Security Policy with Untrusted Domains, where the product uses a web-client protection mechanism such as a content security policy (csp) or cross-domain policy file, but the policy includes untrusted domains with which the web client is allowed to communicate. In Github.com/casdoor/casdoor, 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

Casdoor is a UI-first Identity and Access Management (IAM) / Single-Sign-On (SSO) platform. In Casdoor 1.577.0 and earlier, a logic vulnerability exists in the beego filter CorsFilter that allows any website to make cross domain requests to Casdoor as the logged in user. Due to the a logic error in checking only for a prefix when authenticating the Origin header, any domain can create a valid subdomain with a valid subdomain prefix (Ex: localhost.example.com), allowing the website to make requests to Casdoor as the current signed-in user.
