AnalysisAIv1 – Mar 12, 2026

OliveTin versions prior to 3000.11.1 contain an authentication bypass in RestartAction that allows authenticated users to execute shell commands beyond their assigned permissions. The vulnerability stems from improper request context handling that causes the system to fall back to guest user privileges, which may have broader access than the authenticated caller. Public exploit code exists for this medium-severity flaw that enables privilege escalation and unauthorized command execution.

DescriptionGitHub Advisory

OliveTin gives access to predefined shell commands from a web interface. Prior to version 3000.11.1, an authentication context confusion vulnerability in RestartAction allows a low‑privileged authenticated user to execute actions they are not permitted to run. RestartAction constructs a new internal connect.Request without preserving the original caller’s authentication headers or cookies. When this synthetic request is passed to StartAction, the authentication resolver falls back to the guest user. If the guest account has broader permissions than the authenticated caller, this results in privilege escalation and unauthorized command execution. This vulnerability allows a low‑privileged authenticated user to bypass ACL restrictions and execute arbitrary configured shell actions. This issue has been patched in version 3000.11.1.

Executive ViewAI

Why It Matters

Organizations using gives access to predefined shell commands from a web interface. should be aware of moderate risk from CVE-2026-30225 rated CVSS 5.3. Exploitation could compromise the security of affected deployments. Proof-of-concept code is publicly available. A patch is available and should be applied during regular vulnerability management.

Business Impact: Low

Attack Technique

Privilege escalation occurs when an attacker leverages flaws in access control mechanisms to gain permissions beyond what they were originally granted.
