Description
Mooncake Store master through 0.3.13.post1 contains a missing authentication vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to force-delete any object via Remove, RemoveByRegex, RemoveAll and BatchRemove on the coro_rpc port. Attackers can send forged requests with the force flag set to bypass lease checks, wipe keys matching any regex, or clear the entire store, causing cache loss and request failures.

AI Analysis

Impact

Mooncake Store master through version 0.3.13.post1 allows an attacker who is not authenticated to delete any stored object by using the Remove family of RPC calls. The vulnerability is caused by a missing authentication check and a force flag that bypasses lease enforcement. As a result an attacker can destroy individual keys, wipe keys that match a regular expression, or clear the entire store, leading to loss of cached data and potential application failures.

Affected Systems

The affected product is Mooncake Store from kvcache-ai. All releases up to and including 0.3.13.post1 are vulnerable. No other versions are indicated by the CVE data.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 8.8 indicates high severity. EPSS is not available and the vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog, suggesting no publicly known exploits at this time. The likely attack vector is network traffic on the coro_rpc port where unauthenticated Remove RPC requests can be sent. Attackers who can reach this port can craft requests with the force flag set to bypass lease checks and trigger destructive operations.

Remediation

No solution or workaround provided in the CVE record.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade Mooncake Store to a version released after 0.3.13.post1 that includes the authentication fix
  • If an upgrade is not possible, block the coro_rpc port with a firewall so that only trusted hosts can reach it
  • Implement RBAC or enable authentication on the RPC interface so that only authorized users can perform Remove operations
  • Configure logs to alert on suspicious Remove, RemoveByRegex, RemoveAll, or BatchRemove calls and review them for potential abuse
