3Description
Frigate is a network video recorder (NVR) with realtime local object detection for IP cameras. In version 0.17.0, a low-privilege authenticated user restricted to one camera can access snapshots from other cameras. This is possible through a chain of two authorization problems: `/api/timeline` returns timeline entries for cameras outside the caller's allowed camera set, then `/api/events/{event_id}/snapshot-clean.webp` declares `Depends(require_camera_access)` but never actually validates `event.camera` after looking up the event. Together, this allows a restricted user to enumerate event IDs from unauthorized cameras and then fetch clean snapshots for those events. Version 0.17.1 fixes the issue.
Analysis
Frigate network video recorder versions prior to 0.17.1 allow authenticated users with restricted camera access to enumerate and retrieve snapshots from unauthorized cameras through a two-step authorization bypass in the timeline and snapshot APIs. An attacker with low-privilege credentials limited to one camera can exploit missing validation in the snapshot-clean.webp endpoint to access video evidence from other cameras in the system, compromising the confidentiality of surveillance data across the entire installation. …
