description

phpMyFAQ 4.0.0 through 4.1.8 mishandles authentication during WebAuthn credential enrollment. A remote unauthenticated attacker may associate a credential with a targeted account and subsequently access that account, provided the attacker can target its username and the vulnerable registration functionality is exposed.

mitigation

Upgrade phpMyFAQ to version 4.1.9 or later. Until upgrades are complete, restrict access to WebAuthn registration endpoints and monitor for unexpected credential enrollments.

fixed in 4.1.9
