CVE-2026-32102

Summary

  OliveTin’s live EventStream broadcasts execution events and action output to authenticated dashboard subscribers without enforcing per-action authorization. A low-privileged authenticated user can receive output from actions they are

  not allowed to view, resulting in broken access control and sensitive information disclosure. I validated this on OliveTin 3000.10.2.

​

​

Details

The issue is in the live event streaming path.

  EventStream() only checks whether the caller may access the dashboard, then registers the user as a stream subscriber:

• service/internal/api/api.go:776

  After subscription, execution events are broadcast to all connected clients without checking whether each recipient is authorized to view logs for the action:

• service/internal/api/api.go:846 OnExecutionStarted
• service/internal/api/api.go:869 OnExecutionFinished
• service/internal/api/api.go:1047 OnOutputChunk

  The event payload includes action output through:

• service/internal/api/api.go:295 internalLogEntryToPb
• service/internal/api/api.go:302 Output

  By contrast, the normal log APIs do apply per-action authorization checks:

• service/internal/api/api.go:518 GetLogs
• service/internal/api/api.go:585 GetActionLogs
• service/internal/api/api.go:544 isLogEntryAllowed

  Root cause:

• the subscription path enforces only coarse dashboard access
• execution callbacks broadcast to every connected client
• no per-recipient ACL check is applied before sending action metadata or output

  I validated the issue using:

• an admin user with full ACLs
• an alice user with no ACLs
• a protected action that outputs TOPSECRET=alpha-bravo-charlie

  Despite having no relevant ACLs, alice still receives the ExecutionFinished event for the privileged action, including the protected output.

​

PoC

Tested version:

  - 3000.10.2

1. Fetch and check out 3000.10.2 in a clean worktree:

  git -C OliveTin fetch origin tag 3000.10.2
  git -C OliveTin worktree add /home/kali/CVE/OliveTin-3000.10.2 3000.10.2

1. Copy the PoC test into the clean tree:

  cp OliveTin/service/internal/api/event_stream_leak_test.go \
    OliveTin-3000.10.2/service/internal/api/

1. Run the targeted PoC test:

  cd OliveTin-3000.10.2/service
  go test ./internal/api -run TestEventStreamLeaksUnauthorizedExecutionOutput -count=1 -timeout 30s -v

1. Optional: save validation output:

  go test ./internal/api -run TestEventStreamLeaksUnauthorizedExecutionOutput -count=1 -timeout 30s -v \
    2>&1 | tee /tmp/olivetin_eventstream_3000.10.2.log

  Observed validation output:

  === RUN   TestEventStreamLeaksUnauthorizedExecutionOutput
  time="2026-03-01T04:44:59-05:00" level=info msg="Action requested" actionTitle=secret-action tags="[]"
  time="2026-03-01T04:44:59-05:00" level=info msg="Action parse args - Before" actionTitle=secret-action cmd="echo 'TOPSECRET=alpha-bravo-charlie'"
  time="2026-03-01T04:44:59-05:00" level=info msg="Action parse args - After" actionTitle=secret-action cmd="echo 'TOPSECRET=alpha-bravo-charlie'"
  time="2026-03-01T04:44:59-05:00" level=info msg="Action started" actionTitle=secret-action timeout=1
  time="2026-03-01T04:44:59-05:00" level=info msg="Action finished" actionTitle=secret-action exit=0 outputLength=30 timedOut=false
  --- PASS: TestEventStreamLeaksUnauthorizedExecutionOutput (0.00s)
  PASS
  ok      github.com/OliveTin/OliveTin/internal/api       0.025s

  What this proves:

• admin can execute the protected action
• alice has no ACLs
• alice still receives the streamed completion event for the protected action
• protected action output is exposed through the event stream

​

Impact

  This is an authenticated broken access control / information disclosure vulnerability.

  A low-privileged authenticated user can subscribe to EventStream and receive:

• action execution metadata
• execution tracking IDs
• initiating username
• live output chunks
• final command output

  Who is impacted:

• multi-user OliveTin deployments
• environments where privileged actions produce secrets, tokens, internal system details, or other sensitive operational output
• deployments where lower-privileged authenticated users can access the dashboard and subscribe to live events

  This bypasses intended per-action log/view restrictions for protected actions.
