CriticalCVSS 9.0 · v3.1—No exploit Fix available

Noroxi assessment

Priority: Monitor (action score 36/100)

  • The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
  • Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.62% (FIRST EPSS); higher than 50.5% of all records.
  • Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. Administrator privileges are required. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
  • Fixed version: froxlor froxlor 2.3.8.

Low priority for now. Upgrade to froxlor froxlor 2.3.8 or later.

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS

Froxlor is open source server administration software. From 2.3.7 until 2.3.8, the Customers.get, Customers.listing, Admins.get, Admins.listing, Ftps.get, and Ftps.listing API commands in lib/Froxlor/Api/Commands/Customers.php, lib/Froxlor/Api/Commands/Admins.php, and lib/Froxlor/Api/Commands/Ftps.php retrieve full database rows and return them without removing password and data_2fa fields. An authenticated API caller with permission to use these endpoints can obtain customer, administrator, and FTP password hashes as well as Base32-encoded TOTP seeds for administrator and customer accounts. Password hashes can be cracked offline, and TOTP seeds can generate valid second-factor codes until two-factor authentication is reset. Exposure of both values for an account can enable takeover of the hosting panel or hosted resources and can defeat both authentication factors. This issue is fixed in version 2.3.8.
