Vulnerability from github
Impact
A security vulnerability in Soft Serve could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to bypass public key authentication when keyboard-interactive SSH authentication is active, through the allow-keyless
setting, and the public key requires additional client-side verification for example using FIDO2 or GPG. This is due to insufficient validation procedures of the public key step during SSH request handshake, granting unauthorized access if the keyboard-interaction mode is utilized. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by presenting manipulated SSH requests using keyboard-interactive authentication mode. This could potentially result in unauthorized access to the Soft Serve.
Patches
Users should upgrade to the latest Soft Serve version v0.6.2
to receive the patch for this issue.
Workarounds
To workaround this vulnerability without upgrading, users can temporarily disable Keyboard-Interactive SSH Authentication using the allow-keyless
setting.
