The password change endpoint ( ) in Gotify versions <= 2.9.1 does not require knowledge of the current password. An attacker in possession of a valid client token can set a new password for the affected user. Recovering the account requires administrator intervention or direct database access. ## PoC ## Mitigation - Upgrade to Gotify 3.0.0, which introduces step-up authentication: changing the password now requires re-authenticating with the account password, or - Restrict access to the state-changing endpoints under and to trusted networks.
