| Description | Microsoft UFO open-source framework for intelligent automation across devices and platforms. Prior to 3.0.7, the COMMAND_RESULTS handler in ufo/server/ws/handler.py called get_or_create_session in ufo/server/services/session_manager.py without owner_client_id, allowing an authenticated client to create an unowned attacker-chosen session_id such as constellation_task_id = f"{task_name}@{task_id}" and deny the legitimate owner or exhaust memory with phantom sessions. This issue is fixed in version 3.0.7. |
