description

ep_etherpad-lite before 3.3.3 can retain a pre-authentication session identifier after an SSO login. An attacker who can cause a victim's browser to use a session identifier known to the attacker may reuse it after the victim authenticates, potentially accessing the victim's account or administrator session. Exploitation requires a cookie-injection capability and a victim completing an SSO login.

mitigation

Upgrade ep_etherpad-lite to version 3.3.3 or later. Until upgraded, restrict SSO access and prevent untrusted parties from setting or injecting application session cookies.

fixed in 3.3.3
