8DescriptionCVE.org
A weakness has been identified in zhayujie chatgpt-on-wechat CowAgent 2.0.4. The affected element is an unknown function of the component Administrative HTTP Endpoint. This manipulation causes missing authentication. It is possible to initiate the attack remotely. The exploit has been made available to the public and could be used for attacks. The project was informed of the problem early through an issue report but has not responded yet.
AnalysisAI
Missing authentication in zhayujie chatgpt-on-wechat CowAgent 2.0.4 administrative HTTP endpoint allows remote attackers to bypass access controls and perform unauthorized administrative operations without credentials. Publicly available exploit code exists. EPSS risk not available; CVSS 7.3 reflects network-based attack requiring no privileges or user interaction. The vendor has not responded to the vulnerability disclosure (GitHub issue #2733) at time of analysis.
Technical ContextAI
This vulnerability affects the Administrative HTTP Endpoint in chatgpt-on-wechat CowAgent version 2.0.4, a WeChat chatbot framework integrating ChatGPT capabilities. The root cause is CWE-306 (Missing Authentication for Critical Function), meaning the administrative interface lacks any authentication mechanism to verify the identity of users attempting to access privileged functions. The affected product (CPE: cpe:2.3:a:zhayujie:chatgpt-on-wechat_cowagent:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*) exposes management endpoints over HTTP without requiring credentials, allowing anyone with network access to the endpoint to perform administrative actions. This represents a fundamental security design flaw where access control was not implemented on critical functionality, rather than a bypassable authentication mechanism.
RemediationAI
No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis. The project maintainer has not responded to the vulnerability disclosure via GitHub issue #2733 (https://github.com/zhayujie/chatgpt-on-wechat/issues/2733#issue-4177804035) despite early notification. Organizations currently running CowAgent 2.0.4 should implement immediate network-level access controls to restrict administrative endpoint access to trusted IP addresses or internal networks only, using firewall rules or reverse proxy authentication. Consider deploying a web application firewall (WAF) or reverse proxy with mandatory authentication in front of the CowAgent service. Monitor the GitHub repository for patches and review subsequent releases for security fixes before upgrading. If administrative functionality is not required, disable or remove the affected HTTP endpoint through configuration changes. Organizations should assess whether this product meets their security requirements given the vendor's non-responsiveness to security disclosures.
