SCA: security update for froxlor/froxlor (GHSA-7788-ghfq-c6mh)

critical Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 446087

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

- Froxlor is open source server administration software. From 2.3.7 until 2.3.8, the Customers.get,
Customers.listing, Admins.get, Admins.listing, Ftps.get, and Ftps.listing API commands in
lib/Froxlor/Api/Commands/Customers.php, lib/Froxlor/Api/Commands/Admins.php, and
lib/Froxlor/Api/Commands/Ftps.php retrieve full database rows and return them without removing password
and data_2fa fields. An authenticated API caller with permission to use these endpoints can obtain
customer, administrator, and FTP password hashes as well as Base32-encoded TOTP seeds for administrator
and customer accounts. Password hashes can be cracked offline, and TOTP seeds can generate valid second-
factor codes until two-factor authentication is reset. Exposure of both values for an account can enable
takeover of the hosting panel or hosted resources and can defeat both authentication factors. This issue
is fixed in version 2.3.8. (CVE-2026-62988)

Solution

Update the froxlor/froxlor library and its related packages to version 2.3.8 or later.
