Strawberry up until version 0.312.3 is vulnerable to an authentication bypass on WebSocket subscription endpoints. The legacy graphql-ws subprotocol handler does not verify that a connection_init handshake has been completed before processing start (subscription) messages. This allows a remote attacker to skip the on_ws_connect authentication hook entirely by connecting with the graphql-ws subprotocol and sending a start message directly, without ever sending connection_init. This vulnerability is fixed in 0.312.3." } ], "source": { "advisory": "GHSA-vpwc-v33q-mq89", "discovery": "UNKNOWN" } } } }
