Passbolt Browser Extension leaks password information
CVE-2024-33669 · GHSA-xfq4-78j7-v594
- Affected
- npm passbolt-browser-extension < 4.6.2
- Fixed in
- 4.6.2· Vendor fix available
- Issue
- An issue was discovered in Passbolt Browser Extension before 4.6.2. It can send multiple requests to HaveIBeenPwned while a password is being typed, which results in an information leak. This allows an attacker capable of observing Passbolt's HTTPS queries to the Pwned Password API to more easily brute force passwords that are manually typed by the user.
Recommended action: Upgrade to 4.6.2 or later, then redeploy and verify.A vendor fix does not resolve your finding until you verify it in your own systems.
