Summary
OpenHuman before 0.56.0 exposes its server-sent events endpoint at /events without bearer authentication and allows cross-origin browser access. A local client, or a web page opened by the victim, can subscribe to another client's stream by supplying a known or guessed client_id, since the fixed system identifier makes the proactive-message stream predictable. The exposed events can include complete assistant responses, tool arguments, and raw tool outputs, which is a case of missing authentication (CWE-306) leading to information exposure (CWE-200).

Description from the CNA
OpenHuman is an open-source agent harness available as a desktop application and Rust library. Before 0.56.0, the local server exposes the server-sent events endpoint at /events without bearer authentication, permits cross-origin browser access, and uses only a caller-supplied client_id to select WebChannelEvent objects from the process-wide event bus. An unauthenticated local client, or an attacker-hosted web page opened by the victim, can subscribe to another client's stream by supplying a known or guessed identifier; the fixed system identifier makes the proactive-message stream predictable. The exposed events can include complete assistant responses, streamed message content, tool names, tool arguments, and raw tool outputs intended for the local user interface. This issue is fixed in version 0.56.0.
