Tugtainer: Unauthenticated access to Tugtainer Agent Docker management APIs when AGENT_SECRET is unset

Published Sep 30, 2026 · Updated Sep 30, 2026 · Assigned by GitHub_M

Description

Tugtainer is a self-hosted app for automating updates of Docker containers. Prior to version 1.30.4, Tugtainer Agent allows unauthenticated access to Docker management APIs when AGENT_SECRET is not configured. The Agent uses request signatures to protect its API routes. However, in agent/auth.py, the signature verification function returns successfully if Config.AGENT_SECRET is empty. This causes protected Agent APIs to become accessible without authentication. This issue has been patched in version 1.30.4.
