What is CVE-2023-49105?

A significant authentication bypass vulnerability exists in ownCloud versions prior to 10.13.1, which allows attackers to access, modify, or delete any user's files if they know the victim's username and the victim has not configured a signing-key. This vulnerability arises because the system improperly accepts pre-signed URLs even when no signing-key is in place for the file owner. The issue affects all versions starting from 10.6.0 and poses a serious risk to user data security.

Exploit Proof of Concept (PoC)

PoC code is written by security researchers to demonstrate the vulnerability can be exploited. PoC code is also a key component for weaponization which could lead to ransomware.
