Summary

Up until October 5th, 2022 the ease2pay API used by Miele's "AppWash" MobileApp was vulnerable to an authorization bypass. A low privileged, remote attacker would have been able to gain read and partial write access to other users data by modifying a small part of a HTTP request sent to the API. Reading or changing the password of another user was not possible, thus no impact to Availability.

Impact

The evaluation of the log files by ease2pay did not show any sign of actual exploitation of the vulnerability, extraction of data or misuse.
