Upgrade craftcms/cms to version 5.2.3 or higher.
Overview
craftcms/cms is a content management system.
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Improper Authentication due to the improper handling of TOTP tokens. An attacker can establish multiple authenticated sessions by reusing a valid TOTP token within its validity period.
Note:
This is only exploitable if the attacker has knowledge of the victim's credentials.
PoC
Start the login process in two different environments e.g. in two different browsers. Enter the same TOTP in both environments while making sure that both submissions are made in the timespan where the TOTP is valid. Both environments should display the dashboard, signalling that the authentication process has been successful.
The following request and response pairs show this behavior. The requests are made from different session (different CraftSessionId cookie), but yield the same response. Therefore, the one-time use requirement of TOTPs has been shown to be violated.
