How to Fix CVE-2024-29194

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

@oneuptime/model fixed: 7.0.1815
npm install @oneuptime/model@7.0.1815
@oneuptime/common-server fixed: 7.0.1815
npm install @oneuptime/common-server@7.0.1815
Verify Direct and Transitive Dependencies

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

npm ls @oneuptime/model

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your Node.js application is affected by CVE-2024-29194, inspect your project dependencies using npm:

npm ls @oneuptime/model

Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of @oneuptime/model in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than 7.0.1815), your application is affected.

Note: The npm ls @oneuptime/model command inspects dependencies declared in your package.json and lockfile; it does not perform automated runtime dynamic scanning.

Technical Details

Vulnerability Mechanism & Technical Analysis

This vulnerability is classified under CWE-639: Authorization Bypass Through User-Controlled Key, where the system's authorization functionality does not prevent one user from gaining access to another user's data or record by modifying the key value identifying the data. In @oneuptime/model, 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

## Summary A security vulnerability exists in oneuptime's local storage handling, where a regular user can escalate privileges by modifying the `is_master_admin` key to `true`. This allows unauthorized access to administrative functionalities. ## Details The vulnerability lies in the improper validation of client-side stored data within the web application. Specifically, the `is_master_admin` key, stored in the local storage of the browser, can be manipulated by an attacker. By changing this key from false to true, the application grants administrative privileges to the user, without proper server-side validation. ## POC (I am using Firefox Developer to demonstrate this vulnerability) Log in as a normal user. Open developer tools (hit F12), click Storage, then Local Storage. Modify the `is_master_admin` key from `false` to `true`. ## Impact This vulnerability represents a high security risk as it allows any authenticated user to gain administrative privileges through client-side manipulation. Most of the admin previlages were disabled except the user list. Where an attacker could see all the list of users who signed up to OneUptome. ## Patch This has been patched in 7.0.1815
