NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream librechat package and not the librechat package as distributed by Chainguard. See How to fix? for Chainguard relevant fixed versions and status.

LibreChat is a ChatGPT clone with additional features. Version 0.8.1-rc2 does not enforce proper access control when querying agent permissions. An authenticated attacker can read the permissions of arbitrary agents, even if they have no permissions for this agent. LibreChat allows the configuration of agents that have a predefined set of instructions and context. Private agents are not visible to other users. However, if an attacker knows the agent ID, they can read the permissions of the agent including the permissions individually assigned to other users. This issue is fixed in version 0.8.2-rc2.
