CVE-2023-28635
vantage6 is privacy preserving federated learning infrastructure. Prior to version 4.0.0, malicious users may try to get access to resources they are not allowed to see, by creating resources with integers as names. One example where this is a risk, is when users define which users are allowed to run algorithms on their node. This may be defined by username or user id. Now, for example, if user id 13 is allowed to run tasks, and an attacker creates a username with username '13', they would be wrongly allowed to run an algorithm.

There may also be other places in the code where such a mixup of resource ID or name leads to issues. Version 4.0.0 contains a patch for this issue. The best solution is to check when resources are created or modified, that the resource name always starts with a character.

"value": "vantage6 es una infraestructura de aprendizaje federada que preserva la privacidad. Antes de la versión 4.0.0, los usuarios malintencionados podían intentar obtener acceso a recursos que no podían ver, creando recursos con números enteros como nombres. Un ejemplo en el que esto supone un riesgo es cuando los usuarios definen qué usuarios pueden ejecutar algoritmos en su nodo. Esto puede definirse por nombre de usuario o identificación de usuario. Ahora, por ejemplo, si el ID de usuario 13 puede ejecutar tareas y un atacante crea un nombre de usuario con el nombre de usuario '13', se le permitiría ejecutar un algoritmo por error. También puede haber otros lugares en el código donde dicha combinación de ID o nombre de recurso genera problemas. La versión 4.0.0 contiene un parche para este problema. La mejor solución es comprobar, cuando se crean o modifican recursos, que el nombre del recurso siempre comience con un carácter."
