{"id":"GHSA-gpqc-4pp7-5954","summary":"Duplicate Advisory: Authentication Bypass by CSRF Weakness","details":"## Duplicate Advisory\n\nThis advisory has been withdrawn because it is a duplicate of GHSA-26xx-m4q2-xhq8. This link is maintained to preserve external references.\n\n## Original Description\n\n### Impact\n\nCSRF vulnerability that allows user account takeover.\n\nAll applications using any version of the frontend component of `spree_auth_devise` are affected if `protect_from_forgery` method is both:\n\n* Executed whether as:\n  * A before_action callback (the default)\n  * A prepend_before_action (option prepend: true given) before the :load_object hook in Spree::UserController (most likely order to find).\n* Configured to use :null_session or :reset_session strategies (:null_session is the default in case the no strategy is given, but rails --new generated skeleton use :exception).\n\nThat means that applications that haven't been configured differently from what it's generated with Rails aren't affected.\n\nThanks @waiting-for-dev for reporting and providing a patch 👏 \n\n### Patches\n\nSpree 4.3 users should update to spree_auth_devise 4.4.1\nSpree 4.2 users should update to spree_auth_devise 4.2.1\nSpree 4.1 users should update to spree_auth_devise 4.1.1\nOlder Spree version users should update to spree_auth_devise 4.0.1\n \n### Workarounds\n\nIf possible, change your strategy to :exception:\n\n```ruby\nclass ApplicationController \u003c ActionController::Base\n  protect_from_forgery with: :exception\nend\n```\n\nAdd the following to`config/application.rb `to at least run the `:exception` strategy on the affected controller:\n\n```ruby\nconfig.after_initialize do\n  Spree::UsersController.protect_from_forgery with: :exception\nend\n```\n\n### References\nhttps://github.com/solidusio/solidus_auth_devise/security/advisories/GHSA-xm34-v85h-9pg2","modified":"2025-07-01T19:49:42.985795Z","published":"2021-11-18T20:15:35Z","withdrawn":"2025-07-01T19:19:56Z","database_specific":{"nvd_published_at":null,"cwe_ids":["CWE-352"],"severity":"CRITICAL","github_reviewed":true,"github_reviewed_at":"2021-11-17T21:45:42Z"},"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/solidusio/solidus_auth_devise/security/advisories/GHSA-xm34-v85h-9pg2"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/spree/spree_auth_devise/security/advisories/GHSA-gpqc-4pp7-5954"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/rubysec/ruby-advisory-db/blob/master/gems/spree_auth_devise/CVE-2021-41275.yml"},{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://github.com/spree/spree_auth_devise"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"spree_auth_devise","ecosystem":"RubyGems","purl":"pkg:gem/spree_auth_devise"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"4.0.1"}]}],"versions":["1.0.0","1.0.1","1.2.0","1.3.1","3.0.5","3.0.6","3.1.0","3.2.0","3.2.0.beta","3.3.0","3.3.0.rc1","3.3.1","3.3.3","3.4.0","3.4.1","3.4.2","3.5.0","3.5.1","3.5.2","4.0.0","4.0.0.rc1","4.0.0.rc2"],"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/github/advisory-database/blob/main/advisories/github-reviewed/2021/11/GHSA-gpqc-4pp7-5954/GHSA-gpqc-4pp7-5954.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:N"}]}
