The traQ messenger application (versions prior to 3.28.3) contains an authentication flaw in its OAuth2 implementation. When a silent authorization request (prompt=none) is made with an empty or omitted scope parameter, the application erroneously checks consent against an empty set, effectively bypassing existing restrictions. An attacker controlling an OAuth client can obtain an access token with broader registered scopes than what the user previously approved, provided the user had at least one prior consent entry for that client.
Impact
Successful exploitation allows an attacker to escalate privileges within the application by obtaining access tokens with excessive permissions without further user interaction.
Recommendation
- Upgrade the traQ messenger application to version 3.28.3 or later immediately.
- Review OAuth client registrations and audit application access tokens for unexpected scope assignments for users who have interacted with third-party or untrusted OAuth clients.
Immediate actions
Upgrade traQ to version 3.28.3
Threat Hunt
Audit OAuth2 authorization logs for requests with 'prompt=none' and null/missing 'scope' parameters that resulted in success
Data: OAuth2 provider logs or web application access logs containing request parameters
Mitigations
Patch traQ instances to version 3.28.3
