CORS misconfiguration

Moderate
mdtro published GHSA-4xqm-4p72-87h6 Jul 6, 2023

Package

pip sentry (pip)

Affected versions

>=23.6.0, <23.6.2

Patched versions

23.6.2

Description

Impact

The Sentry API incorrectly returns the access-control-allow-credentials: true HTTP header if the Origin request header ends with the system.base-hostname option of Sentry installation. This only affects installations that have system.base-hostname option explicitly set, as it is empty by default.

Impact is limited since recent versions of major browsers have cross-site cookie blocking enabled by default. However, this flaw could allow other multi-step attacks.

Patches

The patch has been released in Sentry 23.6.2.

Workarounds

For Sentry SaaS customers, no action is needed.

For self-hosted Sentry installations that have system.base-hostname explicitly set, it is recommended to upgrade the installation to 23.6.2 or higher. There are no known workarounds.

CVSS v3 base metrics

Attack vector: More severe the more the remote (logically and physically) an attacker can be in order to exploit the vulnerability.
Attack complexity: More severe for the least complex attacks.
Privileges required: More severe if no privileges are required.
User interaction: More severe when no user interaction is required.
Scope: More severe when a scope change occurs, e.g. one vulnerable component impacts resources in components beyond its security scope.
Confidentiality: More severe when loss of data confidentiality is highest, measuring the level of data access available to an unauthorized user.
Integrity: More severe when loss of data integrity is the highest, measuring the consequence of data modification possible by an unauthorized user.
Availability: More severe when the loss of impacted component availability is highest.
