CyberRota Analysis

AI-Generated

The AI router's dashboard login mechanism is vulnerable due to its reliance on the attacker-controlled X-Forwarded-For HTTP header, allowing remote attackers to bypass rate limiting and perform unlimited brute-force login attempts. This could lead to unauthorized access to sensitive configurations and data. Organizations using versions prior to 0.4.80 should prioritize updating to the latest version to mitigate this high-severity risk.

Original NVD Description

9Router is an AI router & token saver. Prior to 0.4.80, the dashboard login rate limiter in src/lib/auth/loginLimiter.js derives the client identity from the attacker-controlled X-Forwarded-For HTTP header, and src/app/api/auth/login/route.js uses that spoofable value for checkLock and recordFail. A remote attacker can rotate the X-Forwarded-For value on each login attempt to receive a fresh rate-limit bucket, bypass the 5-attempt threshold and progressive lockout durations, and perform unlimited brute-force attempts against the dashboard password. This issue is fixed in version 0.4.80.
