Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
Coder allows organizations to provision remote development environments via Terraform. Prior to versions 2.29.7, 2.32.7, 2.33.8, and 2.34.2, the `CreateSubAgent` RPC did not validate a requested app sharing level against the template's `MaxPortSharingLevel` before persisting workspace apps, letting a workspace owner exceed the administrator's configured maximum. Exploitation requires the ability to register sub-agent apps in a workspace the attacker controls. The fix in versions 2.29.7, 2.32.7, 2.33.8, and 2.34.2clamps the sub-agent app sharing level to the template's `MaxPortSharingLevel`. As a workaround, disable wildcard app hostnames (`CODER_WILDCARD_ACCESS_URL`) to block subdomain-based app routing.

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis
How this class of weakness works · CWE-862

The application checks who you are but not whether you're allowed to perform a given action, so any authenticated user can reach things meant for others. This is the classic “change the ID in the URL” bug. The fix is an authorization check on every request, evaluated against the acting user's permissions.

Recommended fix High confidence

Upgrade to version 2.34.2 (latest fixed release), or to the appropriate fixed version for your branch: 2.29.7, 2.32.7, 2.33.8, or 2.34.2

  1. 1. Determine your current Coder version by checking the Coder dashboard or running `coder version`
  2. 2. Identify which version branch you are on (2.29.x, 2.30.x-2.32.x, 2.33.x, or 2.34.x)
  3. 3. For version 2.29.x: Upgrade to version 2.29.7 or later
  4. 4. For version 2.30.x-2.32.x: Upgrade to version 2.32.7 or later
  5. 5. For version 2.33.x: Upgrade to version 2.33.8 or later
  6. 6. For version 2.34.x: Upgrade to version 2.34.2 or later
  7. 7. If upgrading across major version branches, review the Coder changelog for any additional migration steps
  8. 8. After upgrade, verify the fix by testing that sub-agent app sharing levels are properly clamped to the template's MaxPortSharingLevel
