Summary

In Klever-Go prior to version 1.7.20, the KleverUpdateAccountPermission built-in authorizes replacement of a target account's permissions by checking attacker-controlled vmInput.RecipientAddr instead of authenticated vmInput.CallerAddr. An attacker-controlled contract can choose a victim account with configured permissions as RecipientAddr, and contractHasValidPermission can accept the victim's default self-signer as authorization. UpdatePermission can then replace the victim's entire permission set with attacker-supplied Owner permissions, enabling asset theft or permanent lockout without a victim key or signature.

Risk Assessment

An attacker can take control of a victim's account, steal assets, or permanently lock out access. This can lead to severe financial losses and security breaches.

Recommendation

Update Klever-Go to version 1.7.20 or later, which fixes this vulnerability.

Original NVD description (English source)

Klever-Go is the Go implementation of the Klever blockchain protocol. Prior to 1.7.20, the KleverUpdateAccountPermission built-in authorizes replacement of a target account's permissions by checking attacker-controlled vmInput.RecipientAddr instead of authenticated vmInput.CallerAddr. An attacker-controlled contract can choose a victim account with configured permissions as RecipientAddr, and contractHasValidPermission can accept the victim's default self-signer as authorization. UpdatePermission can then replace the victim's entire permission set with attacker-supplied Owner permissions, enabling asset theft or permanent lockout without a victim key or signature. Accounts without stored permissions and the native transaction path are not affected. This issue is fixed in version 1.7.20.
