- CWE-287 - Improper Authentication
Summary
authentik is an open-source identity provider. A vulnerability that exists in versions prior to 2024.8.3 and 2024.6.5 allows bypassing password login by adding X-Forwarded-For header with an unparsable IP address, e.g. `a`. This results in a possibility of logging into any account with a known login or email address. The vulnerability requires the authentik instance to trust X-Forwarded-For header provided by the attacker, thus it is not reproducible from external hosts on a properly configured environment. The issue occurs due to the password stage having a policy bound to it, which skips the password stage if the Identification stage is setup to also contain a password stage. Due to the invalid X-Forwarded-For header, which does not get validated to be an IP Address early enough, the exception happens later and the policy fails. The default blueprint doesn't correctly set `failure_result` to `True` on the policy binding meaning that due to this exception the policy returns false and the password stage is skipped. Versions 2024.8.3 and 2024.6.5 fix this issue.

Una vulnerabilidad que existe en versiones anteriores a 2024.8.3 y 2024.6.5 permite omitir el inicio de sesi\u00f3n con contrase\u00f1a agregando el encabezado X-Forwarded-For con una direcci\u00f3n IP que no se puede analizar, por ejemplo, `a`. Esto genera la posibilidad de iniciar sesi\u00f3n en cualquier cuenta con un nombre de usuario o una direcci\u00f3n de correo electr\u00f3nico conocidos. La vulnerabilidad requiere que la instancia de authentik conf\u00ede en el encabezado X-Forwarded-For proporcionado por el atacante, por lo que no es reproducible desde hosts externos en un entorno configurado correctamente. El problema ocurre debido a que la etapa de contrase\u00f1a tiene una pol\u00edtica vinculada a ella, que omite la etapa de contrase\u00f1a si la etapa de identificaci\u00f3n est\u00e1 configurada para contener tambi\u00e9n una etapa de contrase\u00f1a.
