Technical details
An authenticated privilege escalation vulnerability exists in the BunkerWeb UI and API due to improper validation of the Host header. When the UI or API is exposed directly (not behind a reverse proxy performing vhost validation), a low-privileged user can inject a crafted Host header to influence the generation of Biscuit authentication token facts. This allows the attacker to escalate their privileges to administrative levels. The root cause is a failure to properly neutralize user-controlled input in a configuration-dependent path used for token generation. The issue is fixed in BunkerWeb 1.6.12 and BunkerWeb PRO 0.57 by binding the Host header, client IP, and username as typed terms in the Biscuit tokens.
