Official description
Typebot is an open-source chatbot builder. In version 3.9.0 up to but excluding version 3.13.0, an Insecure Direct Object Reference (IDOR) vulnerability exists in the API token management endpoint. An authenticated attacker can delete any user's API token and retrieve its value by simply knowing the target user's ID and token ID, without requiring authorization checks. Version 3.13.0 fixes the issue.

The underlying weakness: Authorization Bypass Through User-Controlled Key
The system's authorization functionality does not prevent one user from gaining access to another user's data or record by modifying the key value identifying the data.
How developers prevent this class of flaw
- For each and every data access, ensure that the user has sufficient privilege to access the record that is being requested.
- Make sure that the key that is used in the lookup of a specific user's record is not controllable externally by the user or that any tampering can be detected.
- Use encryption in order to make it more difficult to guess other legitimate values of the key or associate a digital signature with the key so that the server can verify that there has been no tampering.
