Description

Agnaistic agnai through 1.0.555 contains a hard-coded credentials vulnerability in self-host.docker-compose.yml, which sets a fixed admin password and public JWT secret. Unauthenticated attackers can log in as admin or sign their own JWT with admin: true to impersonate users, reset passwords, and change server configuration.

Executive Summary

This vulnerability involves hard-coded credentials in the Agnaistic agnai application up to version 1.0.555. The self-host.docker-compose.yml file contains fixed admin credentials and a public JWT secret. Unauthenticated attackers can exploit this to log in as an admin or forge admin tokens, gaining full administrative access to the system.

Detection Guidance

Check the self-host.docker-compose.yml file for hard-coded admin credentials and JWT secrets. Look for environment variables like ADMIN_PASSWORD and JWT_SECRET in the Agnai service configuration. If these values are set to defaults like 'password' or 'self-hosting', the system is vulnerable.

Impact Analysis

Unauthenticated attackers can impersonate users, reset passwords, and modify server configurations. They can also forge admin tokens to gain persistent administrative access, even if the admin password is changed later. This allows full control over the application and user data.

Compliance Impact

This vulnerability likely violates compliance requirements for data protection and access control. GDPR requires strong authentication and protection of user data, while HIPAA mandates strict access controls for sensitive health information. The hard-coded credentials and lack of proper authentication undermine these requirements.

Mitigation Strategies

Remove hard-coded credentials from the Docker Compose file. Replace default admin password and JWT secret with strong, unique values. Regenerate all JWT tokens after changing the secret. Restart the Agnai service to apply changes.
