Synthesised by an AI model from the NVD description and linked references — a reading aid, not an authoritative source.

CVE-2024-9431 is an improper privilege management vulnerability (CWE-620) affecting version v0.0.14 of transformeroptimus/superagi. The flaw allows authenticated users to change the passwords of other users after logging into the system, potentially enabling account takeover. It has a CVSS v3.1 base score of 8.8 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H), indicating high severity due to its network accessibility, low attack complexity, and significant impacts on confidentiality, integrity, and availability.

An attacker with low-privilege access, such as a standard authenticated user, can exploit this vulnerability remotely over the network without requiring user interaction. By leveraging the improper privilege management, the attacker can reset passwords for higher-privilege accounts or other targets, achieving full account takeover and potentially escalating control over the system.

The primary advisory is available via the Huntr.com bounty report at https://huntr.com/bounties/9b33d7c1-ed0a-4f5b-a378-694570fd990b, which details the issue discovered in transformeroptimus/superagi v0.0.14. Security practitioners should consult this reference for guidance on patches, workarounds, or updated versions addressing the vulnerability.

Mitigating Controls

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

Re-authentication explicitly requires users to prove identity before performing sensitive actions such as password changes.

Authenticator management requires identity verification during password distribution and changes, directly stopping unverified password updates.

PR.AA-01 mostly match
prevents

Credential management practices directly enforce re-authentication for password changes.

PR.AA-03 mostly match
prevents

Authentication requirements include verifying identity before allowing credential modifications.

degrades

Requires secure management of authentication information, directly addressing the need to verify the original password before allowing a change.

prevents

Mandates secure authentication mechanisms, which include verifying existing credentials before permitting password changes.

none

Identity management processes can incorporate verification steps, but the control itself does not explicitly require password-change verification.

none

Information access restriction can be strengthened by password verification, yet the control focuses on access rights rather than change procedures.
