Summary
Froxlor from 0.10.0 before 2.3.14 has a missing authorization flaw (CWE-285) that lets reseller accounts read configuration reserved for full administrators. A reseller with low privileges can call the MysqlServer.listing, MysqlServer.get or Cronjobs.listing API commands over the network without user interaction, and obtain management usernames, hosts, ports, TLS settings and cron metadata. CISA's SSVC rates exploitation as poc, and the flaw is not in the KEV catalog.
