Description
OpnForm derives editable-submission secrets from sequential row identifiers using Hashids with an empty default salt, allowing unauthenticated attackers to compute hashes for any submission. Attackers can read other respondents' full submission data through the submission-fetch endpoint or overwrite submissions by supplying predicted hashes to the answer endpoint.

AI Analysis

Impact

OpnForm generates editable‑submission secrets by hashing sequential row identifiers with Hashids using an empty default salt. This weakness allows an unauthenticated attacker to compute any secret hash, thereby accessing or overwriting others’ submissions through the submission‑fetch and answer endpoints. The effect is disclosure of confidential respondent data or alteration of submission content without authorization.

Affected Systems

The affected product is OpnForm. No specific version information is provided in the CNA data, so all installations of OpnForm may be at risk.

Risk and Exploitability

With a CVSS score of 9.3, the vulnerability is rated critical. Exploitation requires only the public network and the ability to guess or compute the hash, which is trivial when the salt is empty. Because the EPSS score is not available and the vulnerability is not listed in CISA KEV, exploitation could occur at any time. Attackers can read other respondents’ full data or overwrite their own entries by supplying the predicted hash values.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade OpnForm to version 2.0.2 or newer, which fixes the empty Hashids salt issue.
  • If an upgrade is not immediately possible, configure Hashids with a non‑empty, secret salt in the OpnForm configuration settings.
  • Restrict access to the submission‑fetch and answer endpoints by applying authentication or network ACLs to limit exposure to trusted users only.
