ZenML < 0.56.3 Unpatched Session Expiration Exposure (CVE-2024-4680)

high Nessus Plugin ID 213483

Synopsis

The remote host is affected by a vulnerability.

Description

The version of ZenML installed on the remote host is prior to 0.56.3. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability which allows attackers to reuse old session credentials or session IDs due to insufficient session expiration. Specifically, the session does not expire after a password change, enabling an attacker to maintain access to a compromised account without the victim's ability to revoke this access. This issue was observed in a self-hosted ZenML deployment via Docker, where after changing the password from one browser, the session remained active and usable in another browser without requiring re-authentication.

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to ZenML version 0.56.3 or later.
