DescriptionCVE.org

RansomLook contains a missing authentication vulnerability in the /admin/crypto/group/new endpoint. While the endpoint provides an administrative function for creating new crypto group entries, it was not protected by the application's authentication mechanism.

An unauthenticated remote attacker able to access the RansomLook web interface could therefore submit requests to this endpoint and create crypto group entries without possessing a valid authenticated session or administrative credentials.

Successful exploitation allows an attacker to make unauthorized modifications to data that should only be manageable by authenticated administrators. Depending on how crypto group information is subsequently consumed by RansomLook, malicious or fraudulent entries could also affect the integrity of information presented or processed by the application.

The vulnerability is addressed by applying the flask_login.login_required decorator to the /admin/crypto/group/new route, ensuring that only authenticated users can access the functionality.

AnalysisAI

Unauthenticated remote attackers can create crypto group entries in RansomLook by directly accessing the /admin/crypto/group/new endpoint, which lacked Flask-Login's login_required decorator that guards other admin routes. The CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N) confirms network-reachable, zero-complexity exploitation requiring no credentials or user interaction. …

Attack ChainAIDerived

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata

Access
Identify network-accessible RansomLook instance
Delivery
Send unauthenticated HTTP POST to /admin/crypto/group/new
Exploit
Submit crafted crypto group payload
Execution
Inject fraudulent ransomware group entries into database
Impact
Corrupt analyst intelligence data or degrade application availability

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation The attacker requires only network-level HTTP access to the RansomLook web interface - no account, no session, and no specific configuration is required on the attacker's side. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 4.0 score of 8.8 with AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N reflects genuine ease of exploitation - no tooling beyond a standard HTTP client is required. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An attacker with HTTP access to a publicly exposed RansomLook instance sends unauthenticated POST requests to /admin/crypto/group/new with crafted parameters, injecting fraudulent ransomware group entries directly into the database. Repeated rapid submissions could flood the crypto group table, degrading application performance or corrupting threat intelligence feeds reviewed by security analysts. …
Remediation Apply the upstream fix by updating the RansomLook installation to a commit at or after fc25bc4f3d42d3440f9760702c3a5be138bc56a3, available at https://github.com/RansomLook/RansomLook/commit/fc25bc4f3d42d3440f9760702c3a5be138bc56a3. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
