Technical details
An improper authorization vulnerability (CWE-285) exists in Casdoor versions up to and including v2.62.0. The vulnerability stems from a lack of server-side permission validation in the organization and application editing interfaces. While the front-end UI hides unauthorized options, the back-end fails to verify if the authenticated requester has authority over the specific organization or application ID provided in the URL. A remote authenticated attacker with 'administrator' privileges for any single organization can exploit this by manually constructing URLs to modify configurations of other organizations. This can be used to set universal passwords, change OAuth redirection targets, or cause a denial of service by clearing application configurations. The issue was addressed in version 2.63.0 by improving the 'authz_filter' logic.
