Vulnerability details

Heym before 0.0.21 contains an authorization bypass vulnerability in workflow execution that allows authenticated users to execute arbitrary workflows by referencing victim workflow UUIDs without proper access validation. Attackers can create workflows with execute nodes or agent subWorkflowIds pointing to…

T1059 Command and Scripting Interpreter Execution
Adversaries may abuse command and script interpreters to execute commands, scripts, or binaries.
T1078 Valid Accounts Stealth
Adversaries may obtain and abuse credentials of existing accounts as a means of gaining Initial Access, Persistence, Privilege Escalation, or Defense Evasion.
Why these techniques?

Authorization bypass directly enables authenticated users to trigger arbitrary workflow execution (T1059) using valid accounts (T1078) without access checks.
