Message-ID: <c2da63a8-b220-3567-5306-a304f654647e@kkoenig.net> Date: Wed, 25 Apr 2018 10:58:09 +0200 From: Karsten König <mail@...enig.net> To: fulldisclosure@...lists.org Subject: Re: [FD] Authorization bypass in PHPLiteAdmin since 1.9.5 Hello, wbowling from GitHub found out that this bug is even more serious and can be used to bypass the authorization for arbitary passwords. The bug is in Line 40 of classes/Authorization.php[0]. The salt is generated with every reload. You can create cookies again and again until you have a salt which gives you a hash like '0e179250003459658275905707244744'. Now you can login with that specific salt and '0' as the cookie. Best, Karsten [0] https://github.com/phpLiteAdmin/pla/blob/f3998704a846ddf71539092cd6fe84f2e9c35725/classes/Authorization.php#L40 On 23.04.2018 06:41, Karsten König wrote: > Hello, > > I found a small issue in PHPLiteAdmin.
