Have you ever been excited to use a brand-new identity provider? Maybe an open-source one that offers cost-effective and flexible solution? These systems can greatly enhance your organization’s productivity. So far, so good, but what happens if an attacker compromises your identity provider?
In this session, we will outline our research process on two popular open-source IdPs: Keycloak and Authentik, followed by finding 0-day bugs (CVE-2024-42490, CVE-2024-37905)
We will dive into two new research techniques: ORM Leaks and web race conditions, delving into these internals.
Then we will share the story of how an information leak prompted further investigation, leading to the discovery of the ORM Leak technique. Attendees will learn how to use these new techniques on their own research.
Lastly, we will overview a privilege escalation vulnerability in Authentik where any user can gain full control of the system! and from there; the sky is the limit (or control over your organization’s assets and applications)
