| Description | FOSSBilling is a free, open-source billing and client management system. Versions prior to 0.8.0 leak the exact system version through asset cache buster parameters in HTML output, bypassing the `hide_version_public` security setting. The FOSSBilling version is embedded in the query string of every `<script>` and `<link>` tag generated by the `script_tag` and `stylesheet_tag` Twig filters. This information is visible to all visitors — including unauthenticated guests — on every page, regardless of whether the `hide_version_public` setting is enabled. The `X-FOSSBilling-Version` HTTP header and the `guest.system.version` API endpoint correctly honour the `hide_version_public` setting, but the asset cache buster parameters were overlooked. Knowledge of the exact FOSSBilling version makes it significantly easier for malicious actors to identify known vulnerabilities applicable to a given installation and craft targeted exploits. While not a direct vulnerability on its own, it undermines the intended protection offered by the `hide_version_public` setting and facilitates reconnaissance. Version 0.8.0 contains a patch. There is no practical workaround that removes the version from asset URLs without modifying source code. | |
