DescriptionCVE.org

WireGuard Portal, or wg-portal, is a web-based configuration portal for WireGuard server management. From 2.2.0 until 2.3.0, the authenticated GET /api/v0/ws statistics WebSocket in internal/app/api/v0/handlers/endpoint_websocket.go subscribes to TopicPeerStatsUpdated and TopicInterfaceStatsUpdated and forwards every TrafficDelta event without per-user authorization in handleWebsocket(). A low-privilege user can enumerate peer public keys through EntityId and monitor BytesReceived and BytesTransmitted values for peers belonging to other users. The same connection exposes interface_stats and interface names that the REST API limits to administrators. Tunnel content, AllowedIPs, and user identities remain authorization-gated. This issue is fixed in version 2.3.0.

AnalysisAI

Broken per-user authorization in WireGuard Portal (wg-portal) versions 2.2.0 through 2.2.x allows an authenticated low-privilege user to enumerate other users' peer public keys and monitor their BytesReceived/BytesTransmitted counters by connecting to the statistics WebSocket at /api/v0/ws. The same endpoint also exposes administrator-only interface names and interface statistics, though tunnel content, AllowedIPs, and user identities remain authorization-gated; the issue is fixed in version 2.3.0. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Requires an authenticated low-privilege account on a multi-user WireGuard Portal instance running 2.2.0 through 2.2.x, and the attacker must connect to the authenticated GET /api/v0/ws statistics WebSocket, which prior to 2.3.0 forwarded all TopicPeerStatsUpdated and TopicInterfaceStatsUpdated events without per-user filtering. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment This is a genuine but low-severity broken-authorization (information-disclosure) issue, and the signals agree on that. … 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 WireGuard Portal 2.3.0, which is the vendor-released patch containing commit 316f389f11f3129f8603fcf3014fa7f19d7b3273 and the authorization checks missing in earlier 2.2.x releases; see the release notes at https://github.com/h44z/wg-portal/releases/tag/v2.3.0 and the advisory at https://github.com/h44z/wg-portal/security/advisories/GHSA-r45j-3jxf-wgfr. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
