Flowise: IDOR vulnerability exists at the GET /api/v1/organization/customer-default-source endpoint

Overview

Summary

An Insecure Direct Object Reference (IDOR) vulnerability exists at the GET /api/v1/organization/customer-default-source endpoint. This flaw allows an authenticated attacker to bypass authorization checks and retrieve sensitive payment and profile information of other customers by manipulating the customerId parameter. The exposed data includes email addresses, account balances, currency types, and internal billing configurations.

Details

The application fails to implement proper object-level access control. While the endpoint requires a valid session/token, it does not verify if the requesting user has the authority to access the specific customerId provided in the query string.

When a request is made to: GET /api/v1/organization/customer-default-source?customerId=cus_XXXX

The server processes the request based solely on the existence of a valid session, returning the data associated with the ID regardless of the data owner's identity. Since customer IDs follow a predictable pattern (Stripe-formatted cus_...), an attacker could potentially enumerate these IDs to scrape customer data.

PoC

1. To reproduce the vulnerability, follow these steps:

2. Log in to your account at cloud.flowiseai.com.

3. Capture a request to the payment source endpoint using a proxy tool (e.g., Burp Suite).

4. Change the customerId parameter in the URL to a target user's ID (e.g., cus_U9ajkQvu0e67uH).

Execute the request:

GET /api/v1/organization/customer-default-source?customerId=cus_U9ajkQvu0e67uH HTTP/2
Host: cloud.flowiseai.com
Cookie: [YOUR_AUTHENTICATED_COOKIES]
...

Response:

{
  "id": "cus_U9ajkQvu0e67uH",
  "object": "customer",
  "email": "[email protected]",
  "balance": 0,
  "currency": "usd",
  "invoice_settings": {
    "custom_fields": null,
    "default_payment_method": null
  },
  "livemode": true
  ...
}

The server returns a 200 OK status with the private data of the target customer.
