Network-reachable and unauthenticated (AV:N/PR:N/UI:N), but requires a specific 2-legged-OAuth + AbstractAdapterCredentialsFilter configuration, so AC:H; authz bypass yields high C/I, no availability impact.

DescriptionCVE.org

In Eclipse Lyo versions 2.0.0 to 7.0.0, OAuth server authorization checks can be bypassed when the 2-legged auth is supported by the server. In those cases, application that based their authz filters upon Lyo-provided AbstractAdapterCredentialsFilter, are vulnerable. An attacked can create a provisional trusted client (valid use-case) but then it can be used as a trusted client immediately without requiring the administrator approval to clear the provisional status. The 3-legged path requiring user interaction is not vulnerable and rejects provisional clients.

AnalysisAI

Authorization bypass in Eclipse Lyo 2.0.0 through 7.0.0 lets remote attackers abuse the 2-legged OAuth flow to promote a self-registered 'provisional' trusted client into a fully trusted one without the required administrator approval. Applications that build their authorization filters on Lyo's AbstractAdapterCredentialsFilter are affected, allowing an attacker to act as a trusted OAuth client and access protected OSLC resources. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires that the target server (1) enables/supports the 2-legged OAuth flow, and (2) bases its authorization filters on Lyo's AbstractAdapterCredentialsFilter - both are explicit prerequisites from the description and correspond to the CVSS AT:P attack requirement. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The vendor CVSS 4.0 base score is 9.1 (AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N with high confidentiality and integrity impact), reflecting a network-reachable, unauthenticated authorization bypass - a serious combination. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in.
Remediation Upgrade to a fixed release: Vendor-released patch: 6.0.1.Final for the 6.x line (https://github.com/eclipse-lyo/lyo/releases/tag/v6.0.1.Final), or 7.0.0.Beta3 for the 7.x line (https://github.com/eclipse-lyo/lyo/releases/tag/v7.0.0.Beta3). … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours, inventory all systems deploying Eclipse Lyo versions 2.0.0 through 7.0.0 and identify which applications depend on it for authorization. …
