CVE-2024-9014: pgAdmin 4 - Authentication Bypass

id: CVE-2024-9014

info:
  name: pgAdmin 4 - Authentication Bypass
  author: s4e-io
  severity: critical
  description: |
    pgAdmin 4 versions 8.11 and earlier are vulnerable to a security flaw in OAuth2 authentication. This vulnerability allows an attacker to potentially obtain the client ID and secret, leading to unauthorized access to user data.
  impact: |
    Attackers can potentially obtain OAuth2 client ID and secret from exposed configuration in the login page, leading to unauthorized access to user data, authentication bypass, and compromise of pgAdmin 4 instances.
  remediation: |
    Update pgAdmin 4 to a version later than 8.11 that addresses the OAuth2 authentication vulnerability and properly secures client credentials from public exposure.
