Impact

OpenLIT 2.1.0 contains an authorization bypass flaw that allows an authenticated user to read telemetry from any project by submitting a forged x-openlit-project-id header. The vulnerability permits disclosure of sensitive LLM prompts and completions that belong to other projects. It is a classic privilege escalation scenario classified under CWE‑639.

Affected Systems

The flaw affects OpenLIT version 2.1.0. No other versions or products are listed as affected.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 6 indicates medium severity and the EPSS score is not available. The flaw is not listed in CISA KEV but the impact is still significant because an attacker only needs to be authenticated and to know the target project ID and database configuration ID. The likely attack vector is a crafted HTTP request to the trace read API, and the risk is that leaked telemetry could compromise confidentiality and potentially lead to further exploitation.

No solution or workaround provided in the CVE record.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Update OpenLIT to the latest patched release that corrects the authorization bug.
  • If an update is not immediately available, modify the server to reject or validate the x-openlit-project-id header against the authenticated user's authorized project list.
  • Restrict access to the trace read endpoint to only authorized roles and monitor for abnormal header usage.
