📋 Description

Cinnamon's Kotaemon (all versions up to and including v0.12.0) multi-user chat interface contains multiple vulnerabilities due to incorrect authorization and improper access controls. There are four handler methods in libs/ktem/ktem/pages/chat/control.py that load a Conversation record by its ID without comparing the requester's user_id to the conversation's owner Conversation.user. This allows any authenticated user to perform the following actions:

  1. Read other user's chat transcripts, RAG retrieval history, AI-generated plots, and chat suggestions.
  2. Permanently delete another user's conversation.
  3. Rename another user's conversation.
  4. Overwrite another user's conversation's chat suggestion list.
