### Summary The init guard middleware in Qinglong only checks `/api/user/init` paths but not `/open/user/init`, which is whitelisted from JWT authentication and rewritten to `/api/user/init` after the guard has already passed, allowing unauthenticated admin credential reset on initialized instances. ### Affected Package - **Ecosystem:** npm - **Package:** whyour/qinglong - **Affected versions:** = 6bec52dca158 ### Severity Medium ### CWE CWE-287 — Improper Authentication ### Details The Qinglong panel has an initialization endpoint (`/api/user/init`) that allows setting admin credentials. Once the system is initialized, an init guard middleware is supposed to block further calls. The middleware in `back/loaders/express.ts` only checks: ```javascript !['/api/user/init', '/api/user/notification/init'].includes(pathLower) ``` However, the application also has a URL rewrite rule: `rewrite('/open/*', '/api/$1')`. The `/open/*` paths are whitelisted from JWT authentication. The middleware ordering creates the bypass: first, JWT auth sees `/open/*` paths match the whitelist regex and skips authentication. Second, the init guard only chec

What to do next
- investigate
Identify the exact component and deployed version, examine the linked publisher’s conditions, and retain evidence of any mitigation.
Confirm current vendor support, compatibility and deployment evidence. This report has not tested a fix in your system. FIRST EPSS
A fixed release is not deployment evidence.
Check current vendor support and compatibility. After making a change, verify the deployed build and relevant runtime conditions. Keep the evidence, owner and time. An updated lockfile alone does not prove what is running.
