MagicMirror Socket.IO module namespaces bypass configured IP whitelist and allow unauthenticated server-side actions
Noroxi assessment
Priority: Monitor (action score 9/100)
- 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: 0.43% (FIRST EPSS).
- Someone on the same network segment can trigger it. No account or password is required. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
- Fixed version: MagicMirrorOrg MagicMirror 2.37.0.
Low priority for now. Upgrade to MagicMirrorOrg MagicMirror 2.37.0 or later.
Generated automatically from the record's data: CVSS (NVD and CNA), CISA KEV and SSVC, FIRST EPSS, exploit sources, fixed versions. How we calculate it
MagicMirror² is an open source modular smart mirror platform. Prior to 2.37.0, MagicMirror applies ipWhitelist only as Express middleware, while the Socket.IO server in js/server.js is attached directly to the HTTP server without equivalent IP allowlist, origin, or namespace authentication checks. In a documented non-loopback deployment that relies on ipWhitelist, an unauthenticated adjacent-network client can connect directly to module Socket.IO namespaces, and js/node_helper.js dispatches arbitrary events and payloads to socketNotificationReceived. The default newsfeed and calendar helpers can make server-side requests to attacker-selected URLs, while the default updatenotification helper can reach child_process.exec when a third-party module update is pending and the attacker supplies an update command through the socket CONFIG path. This can expose internal services, manipulate module-helper state, and conditionally execute commands. This issue is fixed in version 2.37.0.
