spomky-labs/otphp: Mass-assignment in Factory::loadFromProvisioningUri lets a hostile provisioning URI corrupt OTP state or leak an uncaught TypeError
Summary
OTPHP\Factory::loadFromProvisioningUri() parses an attacker-supplied otpauth:// URI and forwards every query key to OTP::setParameter($key, $value). setParameter() resolves the name with property_exists($this, $parameter) and performs a dynamic write $this->{$parameter} = $value (src/OTP.php:196-197). Because the query keys are entirely controlled by whoever produced the URI, a URI can target the internal properties of the OTP object that are not meant to be set from a URI: parameters, issuer, label, issuer_included_as_parameter, and (on TOTP) the readonly clock. This is an instance of object property mass-assignment (CWE-915).
Impact
The Factory is documented as the entry point for third-party provisioning URIs (e.g. QR codes from Microsoft 365 / Google Authenticator). An application that loads such a URI is exposed to:
- State corruption. A URI such as
otpauth://totp/Alice?secret=JBSWY3DPEHPK3PXP¶meters[foo]=baroverwrites the whole internal$parametersarray thatcreateFromSecret()primed (period,algorithm,digits,epoch). The resulting object is silently unusable:getProvisioningUri(),getDigits(),at(),verify()then throwParameterNotFoundException. - Uncaught TypeError escaping the documented exception type. A URI such as
otpauth://totp/Alice?secret=JBSWY3DPEHPK3PXP&issuer_included_as_parameter=notaboolassigns a string to a typedboolproperty and raises aTypeError. Thetry/catchinloadFromProvisioningUri()only wrapsUrl::fromString();createOTP()andpopulateOTP()run outside it, so theTypeError(andErroron the readonlyclock) escapes past the documentedInvalidProvisioningUriException, breaking callers that catch only the documented type. - Label/issuer validation bypass.
parameters[label]=hijackedstores a label into the parameters array without running thelabelvalidation callback (keyed onlabel, notparameters).getLabel()andgetParameter('label')then disagree — a confused-deputy risk.
Affected component
src/OTP.php:187-201—setParameter()dynamic property writesrc/Factory.php:50-55—populateParameters()forwarding all query keys
Proof of concept
use OTPHP\Factory;
// State corruption
$otp = Factory::loadFromProvisioningUri(
'otpauth://totp/Alice?secret=JBSWY3DPEHPK3PXP¶meters[foo]=bar',
$clock
);
$otp->getProvisioningUri(); // ParameterNotFoundException: Parameter "period" does not exist
// Uncaught TypeError
Factory::loadFromProvisioningUri(
'otpauth://totp/Alice?secret=JBSWY3DPEHPK3PXP&issuer_included_as_parameter=notabool',
$clock
); // TypeError escapes InvalidProvisioningUriException
Remediation
Restrict the keys accepted from a provisioning URI to a known allow-list of public OTP parameters, and never let a URI key resolve to an internal object property via property_exists. Route all URI-sourced values through the validated parameter map only.
