Rocket.Chat

Rocket.Chat in versions before 8.8.0, 8.7.1, 8.6.2, 8.5.3, 8.4.6, 8.3.8, 8.2.8, 8.1.8, and 7.10.15 has a REST API endpoint POST /api/v1/livechat/visitor that accepts an unauthenticated, unsanitized name field for Livechat visitors. This name is stored raw and later rendered via dangerouslySetInnerHTML in the Omnichannel Queue side panel (InquireSidePanelItem.tsx), injecting a real, clickable HTML link - pointing to any attacker-controlled domain, with arbitrary social-engineering text - into the DOM of any agent viewing the queue.

An unauthenticated path traversal (LFI) vulnerability exists under /custom-sounds/ when CustomSounds storage is configured to FileSystem. By including ../ sequences in the request path, an attacker can read arbitrary files outside the base directory.

Rocket.Chat's SAML SSO before versions 8.7.0, 8.6.1, 8.5.2, 8.4.5, 8.3.7, 8.2.7, 8.1.7, 8.0.8, and 7.10.14 verified XML signatures but did not bind the validated signature to samlp:Response / saml:Assertion. An attacker could submit a wrapped document carrying forged identity attributes alongside any valid signature made by the trusted IdP certificate, and log in as an arbitrary user.

Rocket.Chat versions <8.5.1, 8.4.4, 8.3.6, 8.2.6, 8.1.6, 8.0.7, 7.13.9, 7.10.13 has an access control vulnerability in Livechat files. Protected file downloads at /file-upload/:fileId/:name authorize livechat access using rc_room_type=l with rc_rid+rc_token, but the authorization path does not verify that rc_rid matches the requested file's rid. Furthermore, :fileId is predictable via sequential MongoDB IDs, and :name can be anything, allowing unauthenticated discovery of all uploaded files.

Rocket.Chat in versions <8.5.1, <8.4.4, <8.3.6, <8.2.6, <8.1.6, <8.0.7, <7.13.9, and <7.10.13 is vulnerable to unauthenticated file deletion. The deleteFileMessage Meteor method permanently deletes any uploaded file by ID without requiring authentication. When called via an unauthenticated DDP WebSocket connection, Meteor.userId() returns null, causing the authorization check to be skipped. Execution falls through to FileUpload.getStore('Uploads').deleteById(fileID), which removes the file from storage and database unconditionally. File IDs are discoverable from public channel message payloads and download URLs.

In Rocket.Chat <8.3.0, <8.2.1, <8.1.2, <8.0.3, <7.13.5, <7.12.6, <7.11.6, and <7.10.9, a NoSQL injection vulnerability can lead to account takeover of the first user with a generated token when an OAuth app is configured.
