Description
Devtron through 2.2.0 fails to enforce authorization checks on the GET /orchestrator/api-token/webhook endpoint, allowing authenticated users to retrieve admin API tokens. Attackers with any authenticated account can query the endpoint with arbitrary project, environment, and application parameters to retrieve plaintext super-admin JWT tokens for full platform control.

AI Analysis

Impact

The vulnerability allows any authenticated user to access the /orchestrator/api-token/webhook endpoint without proper authorization checks. When a request supplies arbitrary project, environment, and application parameters, the system returns a plaintext super‑admin JWT token. Possession of such a token grants the attacker full administrative control over the entire Devtron platform, enabling actions that affect confidentiality, integrity, and availability. This defect is a missing authorization flaw (CWE‑862).

Affected Systems

Devtron version 2.2.0 and all earlier releases from the vendor devtron‑labs are vulnerable. Users running these or earlier releases are exposed because the endpoint returns admin API tokens without enforcing access control.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 8.7 indicates a high severity vulnerability. EPSS is not available in the current data, and the issue is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog. Attackers only need an authenticated account to exploit this flaw, a condition that is likely present in any deployed instance. The lack of authorization controls makes the attack path straightforward, and obtaining the super‑admin token can lead to irreversible platform compromise.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade to the latest Devtron release that contains the authorization fix, or apply any vendor-provided patch when it becomes available.
  • While waiting for an official fix, restrict access to the GET /orchestrator/api-token/webhook endpoint by implementing network segmentation or firewall rules so that only privileged service accounts or users with administrative privileges can reach it.
  • After remediation, rotate all existing super‑admin JWT tokens and revoke any tokens that may have been exposed to eliminate the risk of token reuse.
