# CVE Reservation Request
<!--
There's help in the Eclipse Foundation Project Handbook https://www.eclipse.org/projects/handbook/#vulnerability-cve
Note that this issue is configured (see the quick actions at the bottom) to be created as confidential.
Note that a vulnerability does not need to actually be resolved before it is reported and that these reports can be revised as needed (reopen the issue to request changes).
If you do not know how to fill certain fields, mark that in the comment and we will help you.
You can delete the comments (or not).

The Eclipse Foundation is a [Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures](https://cve.mitre.org/) (CVE) Numbering Authority.
Creating this ticket initiates **reservation** of a CVE ID for the documented vulnerability. The reserved CVE ID will be posted in a comment below, and kept **confidential** until explicit publication request.
> [!note]
> To request CVE *publication*, please open a [CVE publication](https://gitlab.eclipse.org/security/cve-assignment/-/issues/new?issuable_template=CVE%20Publication%20Request&issue[confidential]=true) ticket.
Please fill in the fields below to draft the CVE record.

## CVE record information
**Project name:** Eclipse BaSyx Go Components
**Project id:** dt.basyx
<!--
Required (for publication). Specify the version range as precisely as possible, e.g., "[3.0, 3.5.1]" or "[3.0, 3.5.1)". Note that using the standard range notion, square brackets are inclusive (i.e., that version is included in the range), and round brakets are exclusive (the vulnerability affects all versions up to but not including the named version).
Multiple ranges can be provided.
-->
**Versions affected:** (, 1.1.4) when ABAC is enabled
<!--
Required (for publication). The Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE) code comes from here: https://cwe.mitre.org/, e.g., "CWE-93: Improper Neutralization of CRLF Sequences ('CRLF Injection')". Multiple codes can be provided.
-->
**Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE):**

- [CWE-436: Interpretation Conflict](https://cwe.mitre.org/data/definitions/436.html)
- [CWE-177: Improper Handling of URL Encoding (Hex Encoding)](https://cwe.mitre.org/data/definitions/177.html)
<!--
Optional. The Common Attack Pattern Enumerations and Classifications (CAPEC) code comes from here: https://capec.mitre.org/, e.g., "CAPEC-63: Cross-Site Scripting (XSS)". Multiple codes can be provided.

<!--
Optional. Provide a Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS). Note that if you do not provide this, then some agencies (e.g. NIST) will compute it on the project's behalf. Please be sure to include the CVSS version number, e.g., "CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:H/SI:H/SA:H".

<!--
Required (for publication). The summary should start with the name of the project, e.g., "Eclipse Vert.x", then a description of the affected versions, followed by a description of the problem. The summary should be concise. For example,
"In Eclipse Vert.x version 3.0 to 3.5.1, the HttpServer response
headers and HttpClient request headers do not filter carriage return and
line feed characters from the header value. This allow unfiltered values
to inject a new header in the client request or server response."
-->
**Summary:**
In Eclipse BaSyx Go Components versions up to and including 1.1.3, ABAC-enabled deployments match `ROUTE` access rules against the fully decoded request path, while the router routes on the raw, still encoded path. An encoded slash (`%2F`) inside a path value is a segment separator for the access check but part of the value for the router, so a request can match a narrow `ROUTE` rule while the handler returns a different, larger resource.
An authenticated caller whose rules grant READ only on parts of a resource can therefore read the whole resource. In the DPP API, a rule such as `/v1/dpps/*/elements/*`, meant to grant only passport elements, also grants the complete passport whose identifier contains `/elements/`. In the Submodel Repository, AAS Repository and AAS Environment, a rule such as `/submodels/*/submodel-elements/*/attachment`, meant to grant only file attachments, also grants the complete element whose stored idShort contains `%2F`.
The issue is fixed in Eclipse BaSyx Go Components v1.1.4.
