GHSA-2vjq-hg5w-5gm7 OctoPrint has an Authentication Bypass via X-Forwarded-For Header when autologinLocal is enabled

• PyPI OctoPrint: < 1.10.1 → fixed in 1.10.1

Impact OctoPrint versions up until and including 1.10.0 contain a vulnerability that allows an unauthenticated attacker to completely bypass the authentication if the `autologinLocal` option is enabled within `config.yaml`, even if they come from networks that are not configured as `localNetworks`, by spoofing their IP via the `X-Forwarded-For` header. If autologin is not enabled, this vulnerability does not have any impact. Patches The vulnerability has been patched in version 1.10.1. Workaround Until the patch has been applied, OctoPrint administrators who have autologin enabled on their instances should disable it and/or to make the instance inaccessible from potentially hostile networks like the internet. PoC 1. Enable the `autologinAs` configuration within the `accessControl` section in the OctoPrint yaml configuration file 2. Set your browser to add the `X-Forwarded-For: 127.0.0.1` header to HTTP requests. For example, this can be done using proxy software like Burp Suite. Alternatively, there are browser extensions such as https://github.com/MisterPhilip/x-forwarded-for, but I haven't tried them. 3. Navigate to OctoPrint and note that it logs you in automatically.
