Reliance on Cookies without Validation and Integrity Checking vulnerability in ash-project ash_admin lets an attacker who controls a sibling subdomain rebind an admin's session to a different actor, tenant, or authorization mode.
AshAdmin's client JavaScript read its state cookies (tenant, actor_resource, actor_primary_key, actor_action, actor_domain, actor_authorizing, actor_paused) by matching the cookie name with an unanchored regular expression (new RegExp(name + "=([^;]+)")) against the whole document.cookie. Any cookie whose name merely ends with the requested name therefore matches, and whichever is serialized first wins. Because cookies are shared across a registrable domain, a compromised sibling subdomain can set a shadowing cookie (for example xactor_authorizing) with Domain=.example.com that flows unvalidated into the admin's LiveSocket connect params. The fix matches cookie names by exact equality.
This issue affects ash_admin: from 0.9.1 before 1.3.1.
AnalysisAI
Cookie shadowing via unanchored regex in AshAdmin (versions 0.9.1-1.3.0) allows an attacker who controls a sibling subdomain to inject state cookies that rebind an administrator's LiveSocket session to an arbitrary actor, tenant, or authorization mode - effectively bypassing the admin panel's authorization controls. The client-side JavaScript cookie parser used new RegExp(name + "=([^;]+)"), which matches any cookie whose name merely ends with the target name, enabling a shadowing cookie (e.g., xactor_authorizing over actor_authorizing) set from a sibling subdomain with Domain=.example.com to silently win. …

Attack ChainAIDerived
Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires that the attacker control at least one sibling subdomain sharing the same registrable domain as the AshAdmin instance (e.g., both `evil.example.com` and `admin.example.com` under `example.com`). … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 4.0 score of 8.3 with AT:P (attack requirements present) correctly captures the critical precondition: the attacker must already control a sibling subdomain sharing the same registrable domain as the AshAdmin deployment. … 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 ash_admin to version 1.3.1 or later, which resolves the issue via commit e93a3408a85035e1f90275d02bc2470c96095e56 - replacing the unanchored regex cookie parser with exact-equality name matching. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
