DescriptionCVE.org

FreePBX is an open source IP PBX. Prior to 16.0.47 and 17.0.30, the FreePBX Framework module permits a crafted backup to restore the hidden AUTHTYPE setting with the value none through runRestore() in amp_conf/htdocs/admin/libraries/Builtin/Restore.php. An authenticated user with sufficient backup-restore access or write access to backup files can thereby disable FreePBX authentication during restoration, bypassing the user-interface removal of AUTHTYPE=none. This issue is fixed in versions 16.0.47 and 17.0.30.

AnalysisAI

FreePBX Framework's restore functionality allows an authenticated user with backup-restore privileges to inject the hidden AUTHTYPE=none configuration setting via a crafted backup archive, completely disabling web administration authentication on the affected PBX. Versions prior to 16.0.47 (branch 16) and 17.0.30 (branch 17) are confirmed affected; vendor patches have been released. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires an existing authenticated FreePBX account with Backup & Restore module access, or filesystem-level write access to the backup archive storage directory - this is a non-default elevated privilege, not available to standard users. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 4.0 score of 8.6 (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:N) accurately reflects the two-stage risk structure: exploitation is straightforward (low complexity, no special attack requirements) for anyone holding a FreePBX account with backup-restore access, but that account requirement (PR:L) is the meaningful friction point. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An authenticated FreePBX user with backup-restore module access crafts a backup archive that includes a configuration entry setting AUTHTYPE=none, then triggers a restore via the administrative web interface. The runRestore() function on unpatched versions processes the setting without filtering and writes it to the system configuration. …
Remediation The primary fix is upgrading the FreePBX Framework module to version 16.0.47 or 17.0.30, which introduces an explicit AUTHTYPE=none guard in runRestore() that logs and skips the setting rather than applying it. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
