CVE-2020-5231

Opencast is affected in versions before 7.6 and before 8.1 where users with the non‑standard ROLE_COURSE_ADMIN can use the user-utils endpoint to create new users (not granting ROLE_ADMIN). Root cause: a misconfiguration in security allowing creation by a course admin. Impact: authorization bypas...

CVE-2020-5231 Opencast users with ROLE_COURSE_ADMIN can create new users

In Opencast before 7.6 and 8.1, users with the role ROLECOURSEADMIN can use the user-utils endpoint to create new users not including the role ROLEADMIN. ROLECOURSEADMIN is a non-standard role in Opencast which is referenced neither in the documentation nor in any code except for tests but only i...

CVE-2020-5230

Opencast before 8.1 and 7.6 allows almost arbitrary identifiers for media packages and elements to be used. This can be problematic for operation and security since such identifiers are sometimes used for file system operations which may lead to an attacker being able to escape working directorie...

CVE-2020-5222

Opencast before 7.6 and 8.1 enables a remember-me cookie based on a hash created from the username, password, and an additional system key. This means that an attacker getting access to a remember-me token for one server can get access to all servers which allow log-in using the same credentials...

CVE-2020-5230

Opencast CVE-2020-5230 affects Opencast versions older than 8.1 and 7.6, where media package and element identifiers can be almost arbitrary. The identifiers are sometimes used in filesystem operations, which can allow an attacker to escape working directories and write files to unintended locati...

CVE-2020-5230 Opencast uses unsafe identifiers

Opencast before 8.1 and 7.6 allows almost arbitrary identifiers for media packages and elements to be used. This can be problematic for operation and security since such identifiers are sometimes used for file system operations which may lead to an attacker being able to escape working directorie...

CVE-2020-5222

Opencast prior to 7.6 and 8.1 uses a remember-me cookie whose value is derived from a hash of the username, password, and a system key. If an attacker obtains a remember-me token from one server, they can access other servers that accept the same credentials without handling credentials. The issu...

CVE-2020-5222 Hard-Coded Key Used For Remember-me Token in OpenCast

Opencast before 7.6 and 8.1 enables a remember-me cookie based on a hash created from the username, password, and an additional system key.

CVE-2020-5228

Opencast before 8.1 and 7.6 allows unauthorized public access to all media and metadata by default via OAI-PMH. OAI-PMH is part of the default workflow and is activated by default, requiring active user intervention of users to protect media. This leads to users unknowingly handing out public...

CVE-2020-5229

Opencast before 8.1 stores passwords using the rather outdated and cryptographically insecure MD5 hash algorithm. Furthermore, the hashes are salted using the username instead of a random salt, causing hashes for users with the same username and password to collide which is problematic especially...
