How it was found

Hi Team!

I found a security issue in ███████. An attacker could login as a any user without registration in the page and above all it can change the session of a victim and authenticate him as any user.

The problem is at the endpoint ██████████ which, thanks to the signin parameter, allows to authenticate anyone with any user.

Impact

Authentication bypass (Login as any user without authentication) Force a victim to change session with other user

System Host(s)

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Go to ██████████

As the link corresponds to a GET request you can force any user to log out and authenticate to any other account.

Additional bonus: clientid and clientsecret are stored in the page source
