HIGH 8.7

DescriptionCVE.org

HKUDS OpenHarness prior to PR #156 remediation exposes plugin lifecycle commands including /plugin install, /plugin enable, /plugin disable, and /reload-plugins to remote senders by default. Attackers who gain access through the channel layer can remotely manage plugin trust and activation state, enabling unauthorized plugin installation and activation on the system.

AnalysisAI

Remote attackers can install and activate arbitrary plugins in HKUDS OpenHarness through exposed plugin management commands. Pre-PR#156 versions expose /plugin install, /plugin enable, /plugin disable, and /reload-plugins endpoints to unauthenticated remote senders via the channel layer, allowing complete control over plugin trust and activation state. Vendor patch available in v0.1.7 (commit 59017e0). CVSS 8.7 with network vector and no authentication required, though user interaction is needed. No active exploitation confirmed (not in CISA KEV), but VulnCheck advisory and GitHub references provide technical details that could facilitate exploitation.

Technical ContextAI

OpenHarness is a plugin-based framework by HKUDS. The vulnerability stems from CWE-276 (Incorrect Default Permissions), where plugin lifecycle management commands are exposed through a network-accessible channel layer without proper access controls. The affected CPE (cpe:2.3:a:hkuds:openharness:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*) indicates all versions prior to the PR#156 remediation. The CVSS 4.0 vector shows network attack vector (AV:N), low complexity (AC:L), no privileges required (PR:N), but requires user interaction (UI:P). The channel layer architecture appears to handle inter-component communication, but inappropriately exposes privileged plugin management functions to untrusted remote sources. Plugin systems typically execute with elevated privileges to modify application behavior, making unauthorized plugin installation a critical security boundary violation.

RemediationAI

Upgrade to HKUDS OpenHarness v0.1.7 or later, which includes PR#156 remediation (commit 59017e09880fcf9a6f60456a84fb982900b2c0b2). Download from https://github.com/HKUDS/OpenHarness/releases/tag/v0.1.7. If immediate upgrade is not feasible, implement network-level access controls to restrict channel layer exposure to trusted sources only - configure firewall rules to block external access to plugin management endpoints and limit channel layer connectivity to localhost or internal management networks. Disable remote channel layer access entirely if not operationally required, noting this may impact distributed deployment scenarios. Review existing plugin inventory for unauthorized installations that may have occurred prior to patching. These compensating controls reduce attack surface but do not eliminate the vulnerability in unpatched code. Consult VulnCheck advisory (https://www.vulncheck.com/advisories/hkuds-openharness-plugin-management-command-exposure) for additional context. Network segmentation may disrupt legitimate distributed operations if OpenHarness relies on cross-network plugin management.
