AI analysis

Docs before 5.4.1 fails to terminate established WebSocket collaboration sessions when a user's access is revoked at the parent document level (CWE-613, improper session expiration). The flaw is triggered when an administrator revokes a user's access to a parent document while that user still holds open WebSocket connections to its sub-documents; those connections are never disconnected. Because the CVSS 4.0 vector rates attack complexity high with present attack requirements (AC:H/AT:P) and low privileges required, the revoked user must generally have an active session at the moment access is cut, but once that condition holds they retain real-time read and write access to the sub-documents indefinitely. Any deployment running an affected version that uses WebSocket-based collaboration with hierarchical parent/sub-document permissions is exposed. No public proof-of-concept, CISA KEV listing, or in-the-wild exploitation is currently known.

What to do: Upgrade to Docs 5.4.1 or later. As an interim mitigation, restart the WebSocket/collaboration service after revoking a user's parent-document access to force stale sessions to close, and audit logs for reads or edits performed by recently de-provisioned users. When revoking access, verify that the user's sub-document sessions are actually terminated rather than left open.

Description

Docs before 5.4.1 fails to properly revoke websocket collaboration connections when access is revoked at parent documents. Attackers with revoked access can retain real-time read and write access to sub-documents through open websocket sessions that are never disconnected.
