CVE-2026-52793

Full vulnerability record from the local CVENow database.

Description

Froxlor is open source server administration software. Prior to 2.3.7, the API authentication path in lib/Froxlor/Api/FroxlorRPC.php and FroxlorRPC::validateAuth accepts an API key and secret for an administrator or customer account without checking type_2fa, validating a TOTP code, or invoking FroxlorTwoFactorAuth. The web interface requires a second factor for accounts with two-factor authentication enabled, but the API grants access after validating only the API credentials, expiration, API permission, and account status. An attacker who obtains an API key and secret for a protected account can call the available API functions without supplying the configured second factor, which can expose or modify customer data, domains, email and FTP accounts, databases, DNS records, and certificate material. This issue is fixed in version 2.3.7.

Antes de la versión 2.3.7, la ruta de autenticación de la API en lib/Froxlor/Api/FroxlorRPC.php y FroxlorRPC::validateAuth acepta una clave API y un secreto para una cuenta de administrador o cliente sin verificar type_2fa, validar un código TOTP o invocar FroxlorTwoFactorAuth. La interfaz web requiere un segundo factor para cuentas con autenticación de dos factores habilitada, pero la API concede acceso después de validar solo las credenciales de la API, la caducidad, el permiso de la API y el estado de la cuenta. Un atacante que obtiene una clave API y un secreto para una cuenta protegida puede llamar a las funciones API disponibles sin proporcionar el segundo factor configurado, lo que puede exponer o modificar datos de clientes, dominios, cuentas de correo electrónico y FTP, bases de datos, registros DNS y material de certificado. Este problema se solucionó en la versión 2.3.7."
