DescriptionGitHub Advisory

Netmaker makes networks with WireGuard. Prior to version 1.5.0, the Authorize middleware in Netmaker incorrectly validates host JWT tokens. When a route permits host authentication (hostAllowed=true), a valid host token bypasses all subsequent authorization checks without verifying that the host is authorized to access the specific requested resource. Any entity possessing knowledge of object identifiers (node IDs, host IDs) can craft a request with an arbitrary valid host token to access, modify, or delete resources belonging to other hosts. Affected endpoints include node info retrieval, host deletion, MQTT signal transmission, fallback host updates, and failover operations. This issue has been patched in version 1.5.0.

AnalysisAI

Netmaker versions prior to 1.5.0 fail to properly validate host JWT tokens during authorization, allowing any attacker with knowledge of target object identifiers to bypass access controls and read, modify, or delete resources across different hosts. The vulnerability affects critical operations including node management, host deletion, and failover configurations, requiring only a valid host token and network access to exploit. …
