Detailsinfo

A vulnerability classified as problematic has been found in blakeblackshear frigate 0.17.0. Affected is an unknown code of the file /api/config/raw of the component Configuration Handler. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a authorization vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-863. The product performs an authorization check when an actor attempts to access a resource or perform an action, but it does not correctly perform the check. This allows attackers to bypass intended access restrictions. This is going to have an impact on confidentiality. CVE summarizes:

Frigate is a network video recorder (NVR) with realtime local object detection for IP cameras. In version 0.17.0, an authenticated non-admin user can retrieve the full raw Frigate configuration through `/api/config/raw`. This exposes sensitive values that are intentionally redacted from `/api/config`, including camera credentials, go2rtc stream credentials, MQTT passwords, proxy secrets, and any other secrets stored in `config.yml`. This appears to be a broken access control issue introduced by the admin-by-default API refactor: `/api/config/raw_paths` is admin-only, but `/api/config/raw` is still accessible to any authenticated user. Version 0.17.1 contains a patch.
