Predictable Session IDs in OrientDB Studio

IdentifiersCVE-2015-2913CWE-330

CVE-2015-2913 affects the Studio component of OrientDB Server Community Edition before 2.0.15 and 2.1.x before 2.1.1. The vulnerable code in server/network/protocol/http/OHttpSessionManager.java generates HTTP session identifiers using java.util.Random, which is not suitable for security-sensitive token generation. Because java.util.Random is a predictable PRNG, a remote attacker who can observe or infer enough output may determine the generator's internal state and predict valid session ID values.

ANALYST BRIEF

Impact, mitigation & remediation

What it means. What to do now. Patch path, mitigations, and the assume-compromise checklist.

Impact

What an attacker gets, and what they’ve been doing with it.

Successful exploitation can allow an attacker to predict active or future session identifiers and use them to hijack authenticated Studio sessions. This can result in unauthorized access to the OrientDB Studio web interface and, depending on the privileges of the targeted session, administrative access or other actions performed with the victim user's permissions.

Mitigation

If you can’t patch tonight, do this now.

Apply the vendor update. As a compensating control, disable the Studio component if it is not needed. Limit network exposure of the Studio interface to trusted administrators and trusted networks only. Monitor for anomalous session activity and rotate sessions after upgrade. The provided advisory also recommends setting X-FRAME-OPTIONS for a separate clickjacking issue, but that does not mitigate this session prediction flaw directly.

Remediation

Patch, then assume compromise.

Upgrade OrientDB Server Community Edition to 2.0.15 or later on the 2.0 branch, or 2.1.1 or later on the 2.1 branch. The fix is to replace use of java.util.Random for session ID generation with a cryptographically secure source such as SecureRandom. If Studio is not required, disable it to reduce exposure.
