CVE-2022-23173 | Priority - Priority web Insecure direct object references (IDOR)

this vulnerability affect user that even not allowed to access via the web interface. First of all, the attacker needs to access the "Login menu - demo site" then he can see in this menu all the functionality of the application. If the attacker will try to click on one of the links, he will get an answer that he is not authorized because he needs to log in with credentials. after he performed log in to the system there are some functionalities that the specific user is not allowed to perform because he was configured with low privileges however all the attacker need to do in order to achieve his goals is to change the value of the prog step parameter from 0 to 1 or more and then the attacker could access to some of the functionality the web application that he couldn't perform it before the parameter changed.

CVSS metrics for this CVE.

Base score Version Severity Vector Exploitability Impact Score source
5.5 3.1 MEDIUM
CVSS:3.1/AV:A/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:L Click to expand
Attack vector (AV:A)
Attacker has to be nearby on the network—same office, same link, that vibe—not the whole wide internet.
Attack complexity (AC:L)
Once they can reach the bug, pulling it off is straightforward—no weird race conditions or rare setup.
Privileges required (PR:L)
A normal user session is enough; they don’t have to be admin.
User interaction (UI:N)
Nobody has to click “OK” or open a trap file; it can work without a victim helping.
Scope (S:U)
Damage stays in the same “trust bubble” as the broken component—no big spill into unrelated systems.
Confidentiality (C:L)
Some sensitive info could get out, but not a total data dump.
Integrity (I:L)
Attackers could change some data, but it’s limited—not everything goes.
Availability (A:L)
Might cause slowdowns, glitches, or partial disruption—not a full brick.
