Vulnerabilities

Chatwoot is a customer engagement suite. Prior to 3.16.0, conversation and contact filters endpoints did not sanitize the input of query_operator passed from the frontend or the API. This provided any actor who is authenticated, an attack vector to run arbitrary SQL within the filter query by adding a tautological WHERE clause. This issue is patched with v3.16.0.

A Session Fixation vulnerability exists in chatwoot/chatwoot versions prior to 2.4.0. The application does not invalidate existing sessions on other devices when a user changes their password, allowing old sessions to persist. This can lead to unauthorized access if an attacker has obtained a session token.

A Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) vulnerability was discovered in chatwoot/chatwoot, affecting all versions prior to 2.5.0. The vulnerability allows an attacker to upload an SVG file containing a malicious SSRF payload. When the SVG file is used as an avatar and opened in a new tab, it can trigger the SSRF, potentially leading to host redirection.

A stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability was discovered in chatwoot/chatwoot, affecting all versions prior to 2.6. The vulnerability occurs when a user uploads an SVG file containing a malicious XSS payload in the profile settings. When the avatar is opened in a new page, the custom JavaScript code is executed, leading to potential security risks.

Cross-site Scripting (XSS) - DOM in GitHub repository chatwoot/chatwoot prior to 2.14.0.

Impact varies for each individual vulnerability in the application. For generation of accounts, it may be possible, depending on the amount of system resources available, to create a DoS event in the server. These accounts still need to be activated; however, it is possible to identify the output Status Code to separate accounts that are generated and waiting for email verification. \n\nFor the sign in directories, it is possible to brute force login attempts to either login portal, which could lead to account compromise.

Improper Authorization in GitHub repository chatwoot/chatwoot prior to 2.8.
