ZenML < 0.57.0 Password Reset Brute Force (CVE-2024-4311)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 213484

Synopsis

The remote host is affected by a password reset brute force vulnerability.

Description

The version of ZenML installed on the remote host is prior to 0.57.0. It is, therefore, affected by an account takeover exposure due to the lack of rate-limiting in the password change function. An attacker can brute-force the current password in the 'Update Password' function, allowing them to take over the user's account. This vulnerability is due to the absence of rate-limiting on the '/api/v1/current-user' endpoint, which does not restrict the number of attempts an attacker can make to guess the current password. Successful exploitation results in the attacker being able to change the password and take control of the account.

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 0.57.0 or later.
