Technical details
The Vibe-Trading local API server (FastAPI-based) incorrectly trusts any request originating from the loopback interface (127.0.0.1), bypassing the API_AUTH_KEY bearer token check. Because the server binds to 0.0.0.0 by default and lacks Host header validation, it is susceptible to DNS rebinding attacks. An attacker can use a malicious webpage to trick a victim's browser into sending authenticated requests to the local API. By targeting the '/swarm/runs' endpoint with built-in presets that enable shell tools (like bash), an attacker can achieve remote code execution (RCE) as the user running the API. Additionally, attackers can manipulate LLM and data-source settings to exfiltrate credentials. This was patched in version 0.1.10 by requiring explicit authentication for sensitive endpoints and implementing Host header validation.
