DescriptionNVD

Fleet is open source device management software. A broken access control issue in versions prior to 4.78.3, 4.77.1, 4.76.2, 4.75.2, and 4.53.3 allowed authenticated users to access debug and profiling endpoints regardless of role. As a result, low-privilege users could view internal server diagnostics and trigger resource-intensive profiling operations. Fleet’s debug/pprof endpoints are accessible to any authenticated user regardless of role, including the lowest-privilege “Observer” role. This allows low-privilege users to access sensitive server internals, including runtime profiling data and in-memory application state, and to trigger CPU-intensive profiling operations that could lead to denial of service. Versions 4.78.3, 4.77.1, 4.76.2, 4.75.2, and 4.53.3 fix the issue. If an immediate upgrade is not possible, users should put the debug/pprof endpoints behind an IP allowlist as a workaround.

AnalysisAI

Fleet device management software versions prior to 4.78.3 suffer from broken access control that permits any authenticated user, including low-privilege observers, to access debug and profiling endpoints. Attackers can leverage this vulnerability to extract sensitive server diagnostics, runtime profiling data, and application state, or trigger CPU-intensive operations resulting in denial of service. …
