Supabase Realtime Presence Data Exposure via WebSocket

Description

Supabase Realtime provides Broadcast, Presence, and Postgres Changes via WebSockets. Prior to 2.111.2, Realtime authorization does not correctly honor the per-extension presence.read row-level security policy when a private-channel client is allowed presence.write but explicitly denied presence.read. Under that differential policy, the client can receive presence_diff messages containing other members' presence metadata, including application-defined location, online-status, roster, viewing, or typing information. Deployments with uniform presence visibility have no differential, and postgres_changes row data is unaffected. This issue is fixed in version 2.111.2.

Executive Summary

This vulnerability affects Supabase Realtime versions before 2.111.2. It involves incorrect authorization where presence.read permissions are not properly enforced. Users with presence.write access but explicitly denied presence.read could still receive presence_diff messages containing other members' metadata like location, online status, or typing information. The issue arises from improper permission checks in the authorization logic.

Detection Guidance

To detect this vulnerability, check the version of Supabase Realtime running on your system. If it is version 2.111.1 or earlier, the system is vulnerable. Use commands like 'npm list @supabase/realtime' or 'docker inspect <container> | grep RELEASE' to verify the installed version.

Impact Analysis

The vulnerability could lead to unauthorized access to sensitive presence metadata in private channels. Attackers with write-only access might view other users' live location, online status, roster, or typing indicators. This compromises confidentiality but does not affect data integrity or availability. Deployments with uniform presence visibility are unaffected.

Compliance Impact

This vulnerability could potentially affect compliance with GDPR and HIPAA by allowing unauthorized access to presence metadata such as live location, online status, or typing indicators. This unauthorized disclosure of personal or sensitive data may violate data protection requirements under these regulations.

Mitigation Strategies

Immediately update Supabase Realtime to version 2.111.2 or later. This can be done via package managers like npm ('npm update @supabase/realtime') or by pulling the latest Docker image. Verify the update was applied successfully.
