Frequently Asked Questions

1

Which deployments are exposed to forged Telegram updates?

Heym deployments before 0.0.53 are exposed when a Telegram webhook endpoint has no credential_id or has an empty secret_token. In that state, the endpoint does not verify Telegram's X-Telegram-Bot-Api-Secret-Token header.

2

Does exploitation require an authenticated account or user interaction?

No. A remote attacker can exploit the issue without authentication or user interaction by posting forged Telegram updates to an affected webhook endpoint.

3

What can an attacker do through a successful forged update?

A forged update can trigger workflows using the owner's configured credentials and cause actions to run on attacker-supplied input.

4

How can I determine whether my instance is affected?

Check whether the Heym version is earlier than 0.0.53 and review Telegram webhook configurations. A webhook is affected if credential_id is absent or secret_token is empty.
