Yamcs's WebSocket subscription handlers omit the privilege checks their REST siblings enforce

Asset / scope: Yamcs 5.12.7 WebSocket topics (packets, algorithm-status, mdb-changes)

Summary

Several WebSocket subscription handlers do not perform the privilege check that their REST counterparts enforce, so a principal subscribing over WebSocket receives data the REST API would have scoped or denied.

Root cause

  • packets (PacketsApi.subscribePackets) performs no ReadPacket check, while the REST siblings do (listPackets:128, streamPackets:256, subscribeContainers:538). A principal with a narrow ReadPacket scope receives the raw binary of all TM packets on the processor.
  • algorithm-status (ProcessingApi.subscribeAlgorithmStatus) performs no check, while REST getAlgorithmStatus enforces checkObjectPrivileges(ReadAlgorithm, ...) (:467).
  • mdb-changes (MdbOverrideApi.subscribeMdbChanges) performs no check, while base MDB reads require GetMissionDatabase.

Remediation

Bring each WebSocket subscription handler to parity with its REST sibling's privilege check (ReadPacket, ReadAlgorithm, GetMissionDatabase). This is the same declarative fail-closed fix as Report 1.

Supporting material

Subsystem source audit of the WS-vs-REST authorization parity. Available on request.

Yamcs is a mission control framework. Prior to 5.12.8 and 5.13.2, Yamcs WebSocket subscription handlers fail to enforce the privileges required by equivalent REST endpoints. PacketsApi.subscribePackets exposes the packets WebSocket topic without ObjectPrivilegeType.ReadPacket, ProcessingApi.subscribeAlgorithmStatus exposes the algorithm-status WebSocket topic without ObjectPrivilegeType.ReadAlgorithm, and MdbOverrideApi.subscribeMdbChanges exposes the mdb-changes WebSocket topic without SystemPrivilege.GetMissionDatabase. A low-privilege authenticated user can receive telemetry packets, algorithm status, and mission database change information outside the assigned authorization scope. This issue is fixed in versions 5.12.8 and 5.13.2.
